If he has it his way, he won’t be on the ballot next year for what would be his 10th and final shot in the Baseball Writers’ Association of America voting.
No new members were added to the Hall of Fame when the BBWAA voting results were released Tuesday. It’s the first time since 2013 that the BBWAA didn’t elect anyone.
Schilling came the closest at 71.1%, falling 16 votes shy of the 75% needed for induction. Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens placed second and third with 61.8% and 61.6% of the voting.
All three were in their ninth year on the ballot.
