A recent informal survey by the Hall of Fame concluded that its number of Spanish-speaking visitors had not significantly increased during the past three years, which is not surprising. What is there for Latinos?
Only seven of the 289 Hall of Famers are Latino, and the Hall of Fame electorate (there will be only roughly 20 Latino voters from a total of an estimated 600 voters this year, according to the Baseball Writers Association of America) hardly represents the percentage of Latinos on the field, much less reflects the number of Latino fans.
