The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum will induct its Class of 2023 on Sunday, adding two players to the baseball shrine’s roster.

Joining the Hall of Fame will be Scott Rolen, elected by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America, and Fred McGriff, chosen by the Contemporary Baseball Era Committee.

The Class of 2023 induction ceremony starts at 12:30 p.m. CDT Sunday. MLB Network will televise the event.

Rolen was the only player to receive 75 percent of the votes among the 28 on the BBWAA’s Class of 2023 ballot. The ballot included Dothan native Matt Cain.

While Cain didn’t make it, the Baseball Hall of Fame does have players with Alabama roots – stars who transitioned to professional baseball from state sandlots, industrial leagues, high schools and colleges, depending on the era, and three others who, like Cain, are natives of Alabama but launched their careers from other states.

The Baseball Hall of Fame players with Alabama roots include:

Hank Aaron, right fielder, Milwaukee/Atlanta Braves 1954-74, Milwaukee Brewers 1975-76

Mobile native, Central High School in Mobile: Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1982 in his first year of eligibility, the outfielder was named on 97.8 percent of the Baseball Writers Association of America ballots, the second-best in history at the time. The 25-time All-Star is most famous for breaking Babe Ruth’s career home run record, but he remains baseball’s all-time leader in runs batted in and total bases.

Heinie Manush, left fielder, Detroit Tigers 1923-27, St. Louis Browns 1928-30, Washington Senators 1930-35, Boston Red Sox 1936, Los Angeles Dodgers 1937-38, Pittsburgh Pirates 1938-39

Tuscumbia native: Manush was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1964 after being chosen for enshrinement by the Veterans Committee. A career .330 hitter, he led the American League with a .378 batting average in 1926 and four times finished in the top five of the MVP voting.

Willie Mays, center fielder, Birmingham Black Barons 1948, New York/San Francisco Giants 1951-52, 1954-1972, New York Mets 1972-73

Westfield native, Fairfield Industrial High School: Mays was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1979 in his first year of eligibility. The center fielder was named on 94.7 percent of the ballots, which was the highest since the inaugural Hall of Fame election in 1936, when Ty Cobb drew 98.2 percent, Honus Wagner garnered 95.1 percent and Babe Ruth received 95.1 percent of the possible votes. A 24-time All-Star, Mays won 12 Gold Gloves, two MVP Awards and a Rookie of the Year Award.

Willie McCovey, first baseman, San Francisco Giants 1959-1973, 1977-80, San Diego Padres 1974-76, Oakland Athletics 1976

Mobile native, Central High School in Mobile: McCovey was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1986 in his first year of eligibility. A six-time All-Star and the NL MVP in 1969, “Stretch” ranked seventh in baseball history in home runs when he retired.

Mobile native: Paige was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971 after being chosen for enshrinement by the Negro League Committee, becoming the first player to enter the Hall in that way. A legend in segregated baseball, Paige was 42 years old when he reached the American League, yet still represented the St. Louis Browns at the All-Star games in 1952 and 1953.

Joe Sewell, shortstop, Cleveland Indians 1920-30, New York Yankees 1931-33

A .312 career hitter, Sewell is the hardest player to strike out in baseball history, once going 115 consecutive games without striking out.

Blocton native: Suttles was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006 after being chosen for enshrinement by the Negro League Committee.
