Roy Halladay’s teammates, family remember the Hall of Fame Phillies pitcher

Phillies legend Roy Halladay was posthumously elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame 14 months after a fatal plane crash off the coast of Florida. The righty better known as Doc received 85.4 percent of the votes, the second most among a four-man class elected by the Baseball Writers Association.

Halladay’s wife Brandy and his children took a moment to thank everyone following the announcement that Doc would earn his place in Cooperstown.
