The Classic Baseball Era Ballot vote is Sunday, December 8, 2024. The 8 players on the ballot are Dick Allen, Ken Boyer, John Donaldson, Steve Garvey, Vic Harris, Tommy John, Dave Parker, and Luis Tiant.Who will get in? Who would Russ vote for? Listen to find out!

With Winter Meetings just around the corner, and the Hot Stove heating up, it's time to talk about the Baseball Hall of Fame, specifically the eight players on the Classic Era Ballot. This year, six former major league all-stars and two Negro League legends are up for enshrinement. Each of the position player candidates has won an MVP, and the two major league pitchers combined for over 500 career wins at the big league level, not to mention stellar postseason performances. These are players who remained on the writers ballot for many years, if not the full fifteen in some cases, and they've been under consideration in prior ‘Veteran's Committee' selections. They are all worthy candidates, but the committee members can only vote for three players. As is often the case on these committees, only one or two of these great players may get inducted this year, and the others will have to wait years to get another shot. Here are this year's selections for the Classic Era Ballot: Dick Allen - 1B/3B for PHI & CHW, 1972 AL MVP, 1964 NL ROY, 7X AS Ken Boyer - 3B for STL, 1964 NL MVP & WS, 11X AS, 5X GG John Donaldson - LHP/1B in '10's & '20's, 400+ W & 5,000 K Steve Garvey - 1B for LAD & SDP, 1974 NL MVP, 10X AS, 4X GG Vic Harris - Player-Manger for the Homestead Grays, greatest Negro League team Tommy John - LHP for CHW, LAD, NYY, 288 W, 4710 IP, redefined injury recovery Dave Parker - RF for PIT, CIN, 1978 NL MVP, 7X AS, 3X GG Luis Tiant - RHP for CLE, BOS, 229 W, most by any Cuban born player Results of the committee will be announced on Dec 8th. In my opinion, all of these candidates are deserving, and I would have no complaints about any of them being selected. I personally would vote for Dick Allen (who missed by just one vote last time), Luis Tiant (who we sadly lost this year), and Ken Boyer (who was brilliant at an underrepresented position). Who would you pick, and who do you expect to make it in? As always, shout out to Baseball Reference and SABR for statistics, box scores, background information, and much, much more. Catch you next time, P.C.O.

Jim is joined by Sports Reference's Executive Design Director Adam Darowski to break down down the hall of fame candidacy of former MLB third baseman Ken Boyer. First, Adam and Jim cover how Boyer is the most forgotten man from the greatest era of baseball (7:12) . Next, they discuss the 1964 World Series, how Boyer compares to Ron Santo, and how Boyer was on 3B Mount Rushmore when when he retired in 1969 (19:05). Finally, Adam and Jim walk through the best third baseman that came right after Boyer left baseball and where he ranks among them (51:10), before they both state whether or not they believe Boyer deserves a plaque in Cooperstown (59:45).

This week we discuss the relationship between sports owners and fans of their temas. We know that those owners have control of their teams, but just how much should they listen to their fandom?

The Cox was banned for gambling, but how good an owner was he and how did his successors the Carpenters do after?Our Hall of Famer this week is outfielder Joe Kelley.

One of the finest third basemen of the 1950s and 1960s, Ken Boyer was a seven-time All-Star, won five Gold Gloves, and captured the 1964 NL Most Valuable Player Award. Though contemporary Ron Santo received more Hall of Fame support from fans and the Veterans Committee that eventually landed him in Cooperstown, Boyer actually received more MVP votes during his career than Santo did.Classic Broadcasts are old-time broadcasts that have been put together from various sources.

There have been 1,193 players who have appeared for the Mets, according to Baseball Reference as of this morning, but only 1,187 names for players in Mets history. Yesterday, Bobby Jones — an entirely different Bobby Jones than either of the Mets' Bobbys Jones, and the golfer Bobby Jones, and not the Hall of Famer from the 76ers Bobby Jones either, that was the point — came up on Twitter thanks to my old Sporting News colleague Adi Joseph. It got me thinking… how many times have the Mets had that happen, the double Bobby Jones thing?So, I went to the list of all-time Mets names and found the repeaters. Let's take a look at these six pairs and declare the definitive Met for each name.Sandy Alomar was traded from Atlanta to Houston around the start of spring training in 1967, then traded by the Astros to the Mets for Derrell Griffith at the start of spring training. At the age of 23, Alomar went 0-for-22 as a Met, and got traded to the White Sox in August of 1967 as the player to be named later in the Bill Southworth trade (the Mets also gave up Ken Boyer). Alomar was more significantly with the Yankees, playing three seasons in the Bronx, but mostly a California Angel. Anyway, here are the lowest OPS figures for players with at least 4,000 plate appearances in the live ball era:Doug Flynn (1975-85): .560Alomar (1964-78): .578Tommy Thevenow (1924-38): .579Mark Belanger (1965-82): .580Ed Brinkman (1961-75): .580In 2007, Sandy Alomar Jr. joined his old man in accumulating 22 at-bats as a Met. In the last eight games of a career that deserved better than 2.8% of the Hall of Fame ballot and going off the ballot in his first year, Alomar collected three hits: two singles and a double. The Mets' third base coach at the time? Of course it was Sandy Alomar Sr., the definitive Met Sandy Alomar because of that coaching stint.On May 10, 1967, with their original Sandy Alomar in the fold, the Mets purchased the contract of Bob Johnson from the Orioles. Playing all over the infield, but mostly second base, Johnson acquitted himself nicely in his first taste of National League ball, hitting .348/.377/.474 with five homers — the best hitting of his career, really. After the season, the Mets traded Johnson to the Reds for Art Shamsky, who became part of the 1969 championship team alongside Bob Johnson, a lefty pitcher. This Bob Johnson pitched two games for the Mets, and retired five of the seven batters he faced for a World Series-winning team (two quick outs to mop up against the Pirates on September 19, and a 12th-inning save at Wrigley Field on October 1). Johnson did pitch in the World Series against the Orioles, but not in 1969. He did that in 1971 with the Pirates, having been traded from New York to Kansas City (along with Amos Otis, oops) after the 1969 season for Joe Foy. The original Bob Johnson has a greater claim to the Mets' throne of Bobs Johnson.Bobby Jones, we don't even really need to go deep on. He and Bobby Jones were teammates on the 2000 Mets, and whether you differentiated them as Bobby J. and Bobby M., righty and lefty, starter and reliever, or white and Black, there was never any question that the main Bobby Jones was the 1997 All-Star and former first-round pick — not the journeyman.Mike Marshall is best known as a Dodger, either for winning the 1974 Cy Young Award or for his three-run homer that broke open Game 2 of the 1988 World Series, depending whether you decide to talk about him or Mike Marshall. In Mets history, neither is particularly significant. The pitching Marshall signed with the Mets in August of 1981, posted a 2.61 ERA in 20 appearances, and called it a career. On December 20, 1989, the Mets traded Juan Samuel to Los Angeles for the slugger Marshall and Alejandro Peña… Marshall was traded to Boston that July after hitting .239/.278/.411 with six homers in 53 games. Once again, can't beat the original.Bob Miller was a lefty who went 2-2 with a 7.08 ERA for the 1962 Mets (hey, that's 5% of their wins!) after coming over from Cincinnati in May of the teams's first season, along with Don Zimmer. Righty Bob Miller likewise ended his career with the Mets, joining the club near the end of the 1973 season after having his contract purchased from the Tigers, then sticking around through 1974. Neither is that exciting, go once again with the original for the Zimmer connection.Last but not least, we've got Chris Young and Chris Young, and anyone who remembers the outfielder's doomed stint in Flushing in 2014 knows that it's the pitcher, here in 2011 and 2012, who is the ulti-Met CY.

New Mets outfielder Tommy Pham turns 35 today. Among players born on March 8, he's fourth all-time in wins above replacement, behind Dick Allen, Jim Rice, and Carl Furillo. (He's tied on Baseball-Reference's list with Harry Lord, a pre-World War I outfielder for the Red Sox and Tigers, and let's nicely project Pham as better than replacement level this year.)When Pham makes his first Mets appearance, he'll be only the second member of the team with a March 8 birthday, ever. The only other one was lefty pitcher Willard Hunter, who went 4-9 with a 5.06 ERA over 68 appearances for New York from 1962-64. Hunter debuted with the Dodgers on April 16 of that first year of Mets baseball… and immediately showed himself to be 1962 Mets material by coming into a game that Los Angeles trailed by eight runs in the sixth inning, and immediately issuing a walk to Harvey Kuennn and giving up a single to Chuck Hiller before serving up a three-run ding dong to Willie Mays.Hunter got to face Mays again in his debut, and walked him as part of a seven-run inning that included Orlando Cepeda stealing home.That was it for Hunter as a Dodger (one appearance, 40.50 ERA) and they sent him to the Mets on May 25 as the player to be named later in the Charlie Neal-Lee Walls trade from the previous December.On July 4, 1962, Hunter returned with the Mets to the scene of his disastrous major league debut, Candlestick Park, this time with a clean slate as the starting pitcher in the back end of the holiday doubleheader. The Mets had lost the first game when Jay Hook couldn't get out of the first inning, Mays tripled, and Willie McCovey hit a pair of homers. But for the nightcap, they had Hunter, familiar with the scene and with a score to settle against the Giants for spoiling his first game as a big leaguer.Frank Thomas (not that one) started the bottom of the first inning — after Neal had bounced in to a 4-6-3 DP to end the top of the first, tremendous 1962 Metsing — with an error on a Kuenn grounder. After Jim Davenport walked, Hunter got his rematch with Mays, who promptly blasted a three-run homer. But, hey, since the Mets had used so much bullpen, and Hunter didn't give up anything else in the first, he stayed in there… and gave up a two-run homer to Mays in the third inning. The Mets lost, 10-3.Mays also singled against Hunter at the Polo Grounds on July 15. Overall, they faced each other for nine plate appearances: Mays was 5-for-8 with three homers, eight RBI, a walk, and on June 3, 1962, in the ninth inning of a 6-1 Giants cruise, one beautiful strikeout that Hunter could remember for the rest of his life. He died two years ago, at the age of 85, having recorded strikeouts in his major league career of Mays, Lou Brock, Eddie Mathews, Ron Santo, Mays, Cepeda, and Roberto Clemente. And the only guys who touched him up for more than one homer? Two of the greatest to ever swing a bat — three each for Mays and Henry Aaron.Hunter's final career appearance was a rough inning in St. Louis in the last game of the 1964 season. After giving up a two-run homer to future Yankees broadcaster Bill White, the last batter Hunter faced was future Mets broadcaster Tim McCarver, who hit a two-run double to drive in Ken Boyer and Dick Groat, but himself was thrown out at third on the play.That's not exactly how Mets-Padres in San Diego ended in 1986 with McCarver at the mic, but we'd be remiss not to remember that, and to continue celebrating the late McCarver's legacy as a Mets voice.

Today we go to June 16, 1964, when Brock made a great first impression, and Ken Boyer hit for the cycle.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

1956 All-Star Game,7/10/56,The scorecards at this game must of read like a directory at the Baseball Hall Of Fame. Willie Mays and Stan Musial hit two home runs for the National League. Mickey Mantle (during his infamous Triple Crown season) and Ted Williams hit two home runs for the American League. Another stand out player was third baseman Ken Boyer who had three hits and three dazzling plays in the field. Once again, the National League won (for the sixth time in seven games) and closed the gap in the series to 13-10. Yankee Manager Casey Stengel continued to suffer at the hands of the senior circuit. He was 1-5 in All-Star games and finding it impossible to match his opponents momentum. oldtimeradiodvd.com
