2014 Hall of Fame Vote

This 2014 National Baseball Hall of Fame vote has been revealed with some surprising results. Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine, two former Atlanta Braves pitchers, were inducted along with former White Sox player Frank Thomas. Maddox received 97.2% of the 571 ballots cast. Glavine was second with 91.9% while Thomas was inducted with 83.7%. Craig Biggio missed by two votes, finishing at 74.8%. Many players lost votes from last year due to the quality of the players on the ballot, but three players were inducted for the first time since 1999. I was correct in predicting that Maddux and Glavine would be voted in.
