Default Buck O'Neil hospitalized at 94

The low attendance could be blamed on the fact it was only Sutter going in and he wasnt exactly a popular choice.His big moments came 20+ years ago with St Louis and thats quite a haul to get there.I think next year you will see alot of people drive up from Maryland to see Ripken go in.Philly is close and Ashburn was a god there and alot of people waited awhile for him,while with Sutter not many expected it and he was an odd choice with the likes of Rice,Dawson and Gossage either far ahead of him statistically or in Goose's case a very comparible player
