Talk about being forgotten. Darrell Evans is one of the few eligible players to hit more than 400 Home Runs and not get elected to the Hall of Fame. He actually never made it past the first ballot. He only made the All-Star Team twice.
Evans wouldn’t be a candidate for the Baseball Hall of Fame again until 2020, when he was included as a Modern Baseball Era finalist as part of the 2020 Baseball Hall of Fame voting. Evans didn’t receive the 75 percent of the vote needed for induction by the 16-member committee, receiving just eight votes.
Despite his reputation as a star five-tool player superstar and multiple MVP awards, Murphy did not get elected to the Hall of Fame. He first appeared on the writers’ ballot for the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1999, the earliest possible year of consideration.
Lynn was inducted into the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame in 2002 and to the College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2007.

Johnny Pesky is a charter member of the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame. “Mr. Red Sox” died on August 13, 2012, in Danvers, Massachusetts.
After leading the A.L. in hits as a rookie, Ichiro finished second in his second and third seasons. But as Jaffe also points out, Pesky didn’t finish his career with Hall of Fame statistics, in part because between his rookie and sophomore seasons with the Red Sox, he spent three years in the U.S. Navy.
Pesky’s Pole is the name given to the right field foul pole at Fenway Park. It is named after Johnny Pesky, a Red Sox player never known for home run power, who one day hit a home run that struck off the foul pole. Mel Parnell coined the term.
The definition of pesky is someone or something that is annoying and causes trouble. A little sister that annoys you and follows you everywhere is an example of a pesky little sister.
The word pesky is an old word from New England, as in “like a pest,” but in a funny accent. Different people find different things pesky, but pesky things are never terrible, just very annoying.
