in 1936, Babe Ruth and four others were voted into the hall of fame, technically first-ballot inductees. Twenty-six years later, in 1962, these two players became the next first-ballot inductees. Name them. FYI: Those missing out on first ballots include Joe DiMaggio, who got in on the third try. Let me repeat that: the third try.
