The Baseball Hall of Fame welcomes five new members on Sunday, July 27, with Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia, Billy Wagner, Dave Parker and Dick Allen set to be inducted in Cooperstown, New York.
Suzuki becomes the Hall of Fame's first Japanese player — assembling a 19-year MLB career after nine decorated professional seasons in Japan — and was just one vote shy of a unanimous election.
Sabathia also got in on the first ballot after winning 261 games as one of the best starting pitchers of the new millennium. Wagner ranks eighth on the all-time saves list with 422, while Allen (1972) and Parker (1978) were MVP award winners.
An enormous crowd is expected for the festivities with Suzuki a fan favorite on both sides of the Pacific and Cooperstown a four-hour drive from Yankee Stadium, where Sabathia pitched 11 seasons.

The 2025 Hall of Fame ceremony is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m. ET.
