Jeff Passan: Hall of Fame Writer.

"Every Hall of Famer did something unique."

Seriously? Every Hall of Famer did something unique? Can you provide some well-resarched examples?


"Babe Ruth hit home runs."

Yes, hitting homeruns is very unique for a baseball Hall of Famer.

I really can't think of any other Hall of Famers who hit homeruns.


"Ozzie Smith backflipped.

Yes, Ozzie Smith backflipped.

That's the best example you could come up? Unique in the way he runs onto the field between innings?


"Vizquel will be the one who caught balls backward and nipped runners by half a step."

Alright. If you say so.

I'm convinced. Put Omar Vizquel in the Hall of Fame.

This whole time, I didn't think Vizquel was any more qualified than Alan Trammell or Frank White.

Oh, yeah. He isn't.
