Mickey Welch was the only one who won induction in 1906. Will White failed to make induction for the 10th year, so he was removed from the ballot. Pat Whitaker, Clarence Stephens, George Wood, and Lefty Mar all failed to make the 5% necessary to stay on the ballot.Posted 12-13-2017 at 12:49 AM by bjohn13
