Default Best Baseball Player Depicted in T206 Not in the Hall of Fame
Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

Based on HOF voting totals, definitely Hal Chase. In the inaugural vote he received more votes than Mordecai Brown, Sam Crawford, John McGraw, Hughie Jennings, Mike Donlin, and Rube Marquard. In the next year's vote his total went up and he still received more votes than many HOFers. By the next year he was off the ballot due to revelations about his misconduct in baseball.
