Once again former Boston Greay jim Rice has been denied entrance into the Hall of Fame. Coming up short by 15 or so votes this time. This is a travesty that a player with his credentials is not in the Hall let alone the fact he has been passed up so many times. Heres the link. If you ask me its MULARKEY. I think these are Hall worthy numbers,and keep in mind these are pre-steroid era numbers
