Don Sutton elected to Hall of Fame II The pitcher maintained a 3.26 ERA with 3,574 strikeouts in 23 seasons By Ronald Blum The Associated Press NEW YORK — Don Sutton was elected to the Hall of Fame on the fifth try, but Tony Perez fell 34 votes short in voting announced Monday by the Baseball Writers Association of America. Sutton, who fell nine votes short last year, was listed on 386 ballots this time (81.6 percent), 31 more than the 355 needed for election. “I had tears and goosebumps when I found out, but I didn’t have the anticipation for it," Sut ton said in a telephone confer ence call with reporters at Dodger Stadium. “I revere Cooperstown. It is a sacred place where the holy grail of baseball is. There are people there who inspired me, including Sandy Koufax.” Sutton, tied with Nolan Ryan for 12th place on the career victo ry list, had a 324-256 record in 23 seasons. He compiled a 3.26 ERA and finished with 3,574 strike outs, fifth on the career list. Sutton and Ryan, a shoo-in to be elected in 1999 when he ap pears on the ballot for the first time, are the only pitchers among the 20 with 300 wins not to be in ducted into the Hall. Last year, fellow 300-game winner Phil Niek.ro was elected, also after missing his first four times. “It diminished the anticipation; it didn't diminish the thrill,” Sut ton said. “In years past, I thought I was going to go in. Now I said I’m not taking anything for grant ed." Sutton will be inducted into the Hall at Cooperstown, N.Y., this summer — the date has not been set — along with any selec tions by the veterans committee, which meets March 3 in Tampa, Fla. Sutton becomes the 233rd member of the Hall and the 176th player. Perez, on the ballot for the sev enth time, received 321 votes. Last year, he was 43 short. “I’m very happy for Don Sut ton. He definitely deserves it,” Perez said in a statement. “As for me, I came closer this time than I did a year ago. But I’ll just have to wait another year and see what happens.” Ron Santo, appearing on the BBWAA ballot for the 15th and fi nal time, was third with 204 votes — 151 short. Jim Rice was fourth at 203, followed by Gary Carter at 200, the highest vote total among the nine players eligible for the first time. Steve Garvey was sixth at 195, followed by Bruce Sutter (147), Tommy John and Jim Kaat (129 each) and Dave Parker (116). (( / revere Cooperstown. It is a sacred place where the holy grail of baseball is. There are people there who inspired me, including Sandy Koufax. >> Don Sutton Former major league pitcher Pete Rose, left off the ballot be cause of his lifetime ban from baseball, was written in by 12 writers — eight fewer than last year — even though the votes didn’t count. Players who failed to receive 24 votes, 5 percent of the record-ty ing 473 cast, will be dropped from future ballots. Among them are Jack Clark (7), Pedro Guerrero (6), Willie Randolph (5), Carney Lansford (3), Brian Downing and Mike Flanagan (2 each) and Rick Dempsey (1). Next year, stellar quintet will appear on the ballot for the first time: Ryan, George Brett, Robin Yount, Carlton Fisk and Dale Murphy. Jack Morris and Rich Gossage become eligible the fol lowing year, and Kirby Puckett, Don Mattingly, Dave Winfield and Kirk Gibson join the ballot in 2001. Pac-10: Arizona’s Barnes named player of the week ■ Continued from Page 8A to be had. Not surprisingly, Washington leads the Pac-10 in offensive re bounds, grabbing 21.4 of its own misses per game, and leads the conference in total rebounds with an average of 46.7. The Huskies are out-rebounding their opponents by 8.3 pergame. Not home for the holidays Someone might have to reac quaint Oregon State with its home arena before the Beavers take on UCLA Thursday. The game against the Bruins will be the Beavers first count ing home game since Nov. 21, a 59-52 victory over Portland. In the past month and a half, the Beavers have played seven road games, including a three game trip to the East Coast and one at a neutral site. The friendly confines of Gill Coliseum will be a welcome sight for sure, as Oregon State went just 3-5 during the stretch. However, the Beavers won’t be completely lost. They did play an exhibition game at home, but that was also a loss, 75-69 to the Portland Saints. Pac-10 player of the week Arizona senior Adia Barnes has been ripping up hapless foes all season long and was es pecially spectacular during four road games for the No. 10 Wildcats (8-2) last week. On Monday, she was hon ored with the Pac-10 player of the week award. Barnes aver aged 26.2 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2 steals per game last week. Incidentally, the Wildcats are 2-0 in conference for the first time in three seasons. Never count out the Cardinal No. 14 Stanford proved it will once again be a force to reckon with in the Pac-10 this season with dominating wins over Oregon State and Oregon last weekend. There were a few whispers among Stanford detractors that this season would be the demise of the Cardinal as it struggled to a 3-4 nonconfer ence record despite a very tough schedule that included losses to No. 1 Tennessee and No. 3 Connecticut. The voters must have been convinced by the Cardinal’s tough schedule, however, nev er dropping it out of the top 15. Illinois is the only other team with four losses to be ranked in thetop 15.
