But sadly Riggs has no business in the HOF. His .336 batting average comes from an era when entire leagues were hitting .300. And frankly there are already enough marginal HOFers from that era. He was a nice guy though, I had a long phone conversation with him in the 70s.

Nice, hope that Curtis Ireland shows up for you.
