Hall of Fame category in Immaculate Grid Baseball

Hall of Fame category in Immaculate Grid Baseball

The rule for the Hall of Fame category in Immaculate Grid Baseball is as follows:

Hall of Famers must be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame but can be inducted from any category (player, manager, umpire, executive/pioneer). When paired with a team, the player must have played a major league game for the team in question. Does not include Ford C. Frick or J.G. Taylor Spink Award winners.

Note that to be accepted as an answer, the Hall of Famer must have played for the team in question, regardless of whether they were elected as a player, manager, umpire or executive/pioneer. For example, Sparky Anderson would count for Phillies / Hall of Fame as he played for the Phillies, but he does not count for Reds or Tigers / Hall of Fame (as he did not play for those teams).

For an example grid with the Hall of Fame category, try Grid 931!
