16 seasons in the Red Sox: all the old ones in the MLB. And finally after 20 years since his retirement Jim Rice was admitted to the Hall of Fame. At 15 and last nomination outside the former Boston left has done it for only eight votes. Rice thus achieved in Cooperstown two other external historical claims of the Red Sox: Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski.
Jim Rice's reaction to the announcement of his entry into the Hall of Fame: "It 's a great relief.'s Finally over and I feel really good." Applications of 2008 did not record the names of particular importance, apart Rickey Henderson, Leadoff the greatest of all time, who has won 94.8 percent of the votes. This has facilitated the entry of Jim in the HoF.
Character shy and not inclined to talk with reporters, Jim Rice has always been a person who has avoided the limelight. His statistics speak of a batting average of .298, with 382 home runs and 1451 RBI. But what counts now is that Jim Rice will sit alongside the unforgettable baseball. Forever.
