This weeks Viz takes a look at the BBA HoF.

Its a first shot at this, I will probably go back and add some additional features based on feedback, but here are some interesting tid-bits..

We have 132 Inductees, from 15 Countries, and 32 States all represented in the HoF.

Some questions you've all wondered... (don't worry we have the answers)
  • Who's was the youngest player inducted?
  • What country outside the U.S. has the most HoFers?
  • What HoF weighs a whopping 308lbs?!
  • Who shot JR?!?...
  • Who's the smallest HoFer?
  • What team has the most HoFers?
These and many many more if you call now...

Enjoy (questions, comments, & insults are welcome)

I love this, as a novice to the BBA universe. And I love the Brewster Hall of Fame logo. It looks similar to another Hall of Fame logo? :)

66 years old is the oldest player! Is there a veterans committee type thing for the BBA Hall of Fame?

recte generally picks 2 veterans guys (1 pitcher and 1 hitter) and puts them on the same ballot as the regular guys. They are held to the same standard. It is rare a veterans guy goes in, but just had one in Amen Mitrani a few years ago. We changed to a straight up/down system relatively recently as opposed to a weighted system, which makes more likely to see multiple guys get in.
