Randy Johnson- had a 22 year pitching career with 303 wins and 166 loses. He hit 411 home runs and got the most votes (534) and 97.3% on his first time on the ballot.
Pedro Martinez- 18 year pitching career with a record of 219-100. He had 500 votes (91.1%) and 239 HRs, 1st time on ballot.
John Smoltz hit 288 home runs in a 21 year pitching career with a record of 213-155. He received 455 votes (82.7%) on his first time on ballot.
Craig Biggio received 454 votes (82.7%) this was his first time on ballot. In a 20 year career he hit 291 homers, had 1175 RBIs and BA of .281.
Some members of the Juice-IN-THE-ARM Gang also got some votes:
Player.........................votes..%...YOB
Roger Clemens...........206...37.5...3
Barry Bonds................202..36.8....3
Mark McGwire..............55...10.......9
Sammy Sosa................36....6.6.....3
Players need 75% of the vote and can only remain on the ballot for 10 years as long as they get least 5% of the vote the previous year. Bonds has one year left to make it and Sosa barely held on with 6.6%. These juicers will never get in, let's hope.
