Maury Wills

Maury Wills died this week. And a few months back, Tommy Davis died. The two of them, along with Sandy Koufax, once won three World Series titles for the Dodgers.

Davis twice led the lead in hitting. Wills was the first player to steal 100 bases in one season. He changed the game. The Dodgers' offense consisted of Wills singling, stealing second and stealing third. Then Davis would drive him home. Koufax would pitch a shut out, and the Dodgers would win. 

I'm a Giants fan, but why aren't Wills and maybe Davis in the Hall of Fame?
