individual whose extraordinary efforts enhanced baseball's positive
impact on society, has broadened the game's appeal, and whose
character, integrity and dignity are comparable to the qualities
exhibited by O'Neil. I think we can say GIL fits the mold here--the
above came from HALL site & remember BUCK stated at the HALL-GIL
deserves to be in HALL--how fitting for GIL to be first recipient
now in 2009 or 2010--HALL can do when they want--Write Joe Morgan at
HALL to get this done for GIL.
