Cooperstown is getting four new residents. Closer Mariano Rivera, DH Edgar Martinez, and pitchers Roy Halladay and Mike Mussina have been chosen by the Baseball Writers of America as the newest members of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Halladay is going to the hall posthumously. Rivera is entering the hall as the first player ever to get 100% of the votes, not even Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth did that.
