Classic Era Committee Elects Dick Allen and Dave Parker to Baseball Hall of Fame
Dec 9, 2024, 12:43 AM
Former MLB stars Dick Allen and Dave Parker have been elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame by the Classic Baseball Era Committee, receiving 13 and 14 votes respectively from the 16-member panel, surpassing the 12-vote threshold required for induction. The committee met on Sunday in Dallas, announcing that the two players will be enshrined in Cooperstown on July 27. Allen, who will be inducted posthumously, was a seven-time All-Star and the 1972 American League Most Valuable Player with the Chicago White Sox, known for his powerful hitting during his time with the Phillies and the White Sox. Parker, nicknamed "The Cobra," was a standout right fielder for the Pittsburgh Pirates, celebrated for his hitting prowess and strong throwing arm. Both players had long been considered for induction, and their election is seen by many as overdue recognition of their significant contributions to baseball.
