Congrats to both. Henderson was a no brainer. He was a true game changer. Deadly on the bases and striking ridiculous fear into opposing pitchers and catchers.
Rice was the best right-handed hitter in baseball for 10 years. While I understand his stats weren't as good as some (no 400 HRs etc.) he played in an era mostly dominated by pitchers, and I think overall does deserve to be in the Hall. I do understand why it took so long, but I'm glad he's in.
