Kaat, Others Held From Hall

Yankees manager Joe Torre and former broadcaster Jim Kaat are among the former players who failed to garner the 75% required vote to be elected to the Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee. Ron Santo (69.5%) received the highest portion of the vote, but still fell 5 ballots shy of election.

Former umpire Doug Harvey and long time player union head Marvin Miller received the most votes for the non-player portion of the ballot, but still fell considerably short of election. The Veterans Committee has not elected anyone to the Hall since the voting changes were put in place in 2003.
