Dave Parker, Dick Allen Voted into Hall of Fame by Classic Baseball Era Committee

Dave Parker and Dick Allen were voted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame through the Classic Baseball Era Committee ballot on Sunday.

Parker and Allen were members of an eight-name ballot that also included Ken Boyer, John Donaldson, Steve Garvey, Vic Harris, Tommy John and Luis Tiant. The CBE ballot focuses on candidates who contributed to the game of baseball prior to 1980, including Negro Leagues and pre-Negro Leagues members.

Candidates needed 75 percent of the vote from the 16-member committee to receive induction into the Hall of Fame. The results were announced on MLB Network.

Parker spent 19 years in the majors and suited up for six teams, including the Pittsburgh Pirates, Cincinnati Reds and Oakland Athletics. Nicknamed "The Cobra," Parker used his intimidating bat to earn an NL MVP award, three Silver Slugger Awards and two batting titles. He also earned three Gold Glove awards for his expertise in right field. He was a member of World Series-winning teams with the Pirates and the A's.

Allen played 15 years in MLB for five teams and spent most of his career with the Philadelphia Phillies and Chicago White Sox. He was an AL MVP, an NL Rookie of the Year and a seven-time All-Star while splitting his time between third base and first base.

Parker and Allen will be part of the Class of 2025 that will be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on July 27. They will be joined by Modern Era candidates, which include newcomers to the ballot like Ichiro Suzuki, Dustin Pedroia and CC Sabathia. The final results of the Modern Era ballot will be announced on Jan. 21 at 6 p.m. ET on MLB Network.
