Baseball Hall of Fame voting was announced and it did surprise the world. Although Andre Dawson deserves to get the honor of ultimate Baseball fame, he happened to be the only person to get 75% of the voting by members of Baseball Writers Association of America.

Called the Hall of Fame voting; the 2010 Baseball Hall of Fame voting quite disappointed fans as only one among 26 baseball players who were present on the ballot could go to Cooperstown. Andre Dawson was the player who survived this. Dawson had a fine career with 8 years of playing to have made it to the Hall of Fame voting.

Dawson will be joining Whitey Herzog and Doug Harvey who were voted to the Baseball Hall of Fame during December 2009 by Veterans Committee of baseball.

Robert Alomar not making it to the Hall of Fame was the shock actually of the 2010 voting. Out of 539 votes a player should get 420 (which is a 75% support by members) to make it. In 2010, Andre Dawson could get 77.9% of the membership votes. Sadly, Bert Blyleven narrowly fell short of the support votes and he stood second with Roberto Alomar coming in at third with 73.7% of support.

Rumors are rife that the ballot has been rigged to push in some people into the 2010 Baseball Hall of Fame Baseball. The steroid scandals sadly pushed only Dawson to make it to the list and hopefully MLB will deal with the steroid issue seriously to promote ethics and morally boost the ethical players to make into the Hall of Fame.
