I have a guest post up on The Hardball Times about baseball players who received one vote for the Hall of Fame. There are 59 Hall of Famers who fall into this category including Joe DiMaggio. If ever anyone wondered if there’s a way to group Joltin’ Joe with Mark Davis, Benito Santiago, and Pat Hentgen, here it is.
From what I’ve read about him, he was a magician with the glove, comparable to Bill as the best ever, only unable to keep his mouth shut and stay out of trouble.
