The Baseball Hall of Fame will be inducting two more players into the ranks of the immortals, including a player who has waited several years for the honor.

Pol Perritt, not surprisingly, was mentioned on all eleven ballots cast in this year’s election. Sandy Piez, one of the game’s greatest leadoff hitters and base thieves, has also earned a plaque after gathering strong support in several previous elections.

Nine votes were allowed for election, which means that Mike Konnick fell barely short of enshrinement in his second year of eligibility. Konnick received 72.7% of the vote, the nearest miss in the history of the balloting. He, and the other players listed below, will appear on next year’s ballot, barring a change in the Hall’s election policies.

Here are the complete results of the 1935 balloting. Congratulations to Pol Perritt and Sandy Piez, the newest members of the Baseball Hall of Fame!

Thanks to all of you who voted in this year's election.
