Like you, my father was a big Brooklyn Dodgers fan. He grew up in Brooklyn. I remember him talking about Gil Hodges. I have recollections that Gil lived in the neighbourhood.
Between his playing days and managing the Miracle Mets, his membership was long overdue. I'm glad he's been recognised by the Committee.
