At long last, our long national nightmare is over. Bert Blyleven has been elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame. This corrects one of the great injustices of all time in baseball. Blyleven was named on 79.7 percent of the ballots, receiving 463 votes. A candidate must receive 75 percent of the vote to gain election. The threshold for election this year was 436 votes. Blyleven will join Roberto Alomar and general Manager Pat Gillick at the Induction Ceremony this summer in Cooperstown, New York.
