The calendar has changed to September. The air is cooler. The leaves are changing colors. The kids are back at school. That means it's Hall of Fame season!

This winter, the Classic Baseball Era Committee will meet to discuss candidates who made their mark on the game prior to 1980. I've been anxiously awaiting this ballot because it seems like an impossible task to distill about 140 years of baseball (players, managers, executives, umpires, and pioneers from the AL/NL, other pre-integration major leagues, the Negro Leagues, and pre-1920 Black Baseball) to an eight-person ballot.

To help wade through the candidates, I shared a ballot of 250 candidates and 312 baseball fans voted. In this episode, I discuss the results of the voting project with Dave Metter.
