Rice speaks

Posted by Greg Lee, Globe Staff January 8, 2008 04:21 PM

Jim Rice released a statement today on not being elected today for the Baseball Hall of Fame.

“Today’s results are obviously a disappointment. I believe my accomplishments speak for themselves, and a majority of the voters seem to agree. It is tough to come this close, but I remain hopeful for the 2009 results. I appreciate all the kind words from so many players, including Rich Gossage, and I congratulate Goose on his well-deserved election today."
