MLB Roundup 12/6: Buck O’Neil among six elected to the Hall of Fame

With the lockout and the transaction freeze that came along with it, there has been basically nothing in the way of league-wide news over the last week or so, leaving this MLB Roundup section empty. One thing that is unaffected by the lockout, however, is the Hall of Fame, and six names were elected on Sunday. The main ballot is still being filled out by the BBWAA writers, but two special committees (often referred to as a veterans committee) announced their results over the weekend, with players making it from the Early Days (1871-1949) and the Golden Days (1950-1969).
