As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reported on Tuesday that the Baseball Hall of Fame will likely postpone their induction ceremony for 2020 and move it to 2021. The ceremonies would have inducted former Colorado Rockies outfielder Larry Walker, former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, former Milwaukee Brewers and St. Louis Cardinals catcher Ted Simmons, and the late former MLBPA executive director Marvin Miller into the Hall of Fame.
Nightengale reported that the Hall of Fame’s Board of Directors will officially meet this week to determine the fate of the induction ceremony but, in all likelihood, they will postpone it.
