Second in HR's and RBI's for the entire 50's decade, played in 7 WS"s, To lead the very lowly NY Mets to a Miracle WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP in 1969 and made the Mets a frontrunner for the rest of his life. How could you not put this Beautiful Being

Gil Hodges has a body of work that makes him worthy of HOF induction. He was a consistent home run hitter, run producer and gold glove type first baseman. Plus he led the 1969 New York Mets to a world championship. Additionally, his character bas beyond reproach.

Gil Hodges’ stats alone should be enough to install him into the Hall of Fame. His record as a major league manager should also enhance his chances.

I was born in 1974 and a “1980’s kid” yet we even saw Hodges as a MAJOR star of the Golden Era..

Mr. Hodges had more home runs in the 50's than any other right handed hitter.
