Or the other 34 Negro Leaguers?

The Hall of Fame is comprised of 306 elected members. Included are 211 former major league players, 28 executives, 35 Negro leagers, 22 managers and 10 umpires.

The better question is what is your deal with Buck?

I had no problem with Buck Oneal just he was not a HOF'er sorry. All the JOPO articles won't make it so. In life he was a HOF'er.
