2019 Baseball Hall of Fame induction ceremony: Time, TV, streaming info
Only the elite are inducted in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Less than 2% of all Major League Baseball players end up in Cooperstown, New York.
On Sunday, the Hall will welcome six new members to the exclusive fraternity – Mariano Rivera, Roy Halladay, Edgar Martinez and Mike Mussina were elected by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America and Harold Baines and Lee Smith by the Today’s Game Era committee.
The BBWAA has elected 17 players to the Hall over the past five years, the largest total over a five-year span, breaking the previous mark of 16 from 2014 to 2018.
Four of the six inductees will don a cap of the logo of their former teams – Baines, Chicago White Sox; Martinez, Seattle Mariners; Rivera, New York Yankees; Smith, Chicago Cubs.
For Halladay and Mussina, the cap on the plaque will remain blank
