Should a man who has over 4256 hits be kept from the Hall of Fame because he bet on a few baseball games? The hits leader in major league baseball is banned from baseball, does that make any sense?

…showed last 75 words of 657 total…should be in the hall of fame for his on the field actions. Ten years is a long time.
