Derek Jeter was voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame on Tuesday night, stunningly missing out on the unanimous Hall of Fame election by one vote. Nonetheless, the stars waiting for him in Cooperstown are already welcoming him to their exclusive club.

Goose Gossage:

“Derek Jeter is one of my favorite — if not my favorite — players since I’ve been out of the game. Not only was a he a great player, but he conducted himself as a consummate professional through his entire career. To do what he did in New York and to not have any controversy, he just did things the right way.
