1961 Hall of Fame

 The BBWAA voters in 1960 pitched another shutout, and by the nature of the rules there were no other players available for enshrinement. It was the Veterans Committee's turn in 1961 and they stepped up with two men. After back-to-back failures to vote in new players, the rules would be tweaked the following season to ensure there would be someone to get the call for the hall.
