On Tuesday, the National Baseball Hall of Fame announced the results of the 2023-24 voting process.

The outcome of it is four new people entering Cooperstown.

Third baseman Adrian Beltre, catcher Joe Mauer, and first baseman Todd Helton are all being enshrined in the summer after achieving immortality.

Back in early December, the Contemporary Baseball Era Committee elected manager Jim Leyland to the Hall.

MLB Network published a graphic with the four new members of the HOF:

Beltre was one of the most consistent third baseman of his generation.

Over a brilliant career that spanned 21 seasons (1998 to 2018), he hit 477 home runs and accumulated 3,166 hits.

A phenomenal defender, he won five Gold Gloves and two Platinum Gloves, plus four Silver Slugger awards.

Mauer was perhaps the greatest hitting catcher of his time.

Playing his entire career with the Minnesota Twins, he won the 2009 AL MVP award and retired with a lifetime .306 batting average and 2,123 hits.

He also won multiple Gold Gloves and Silver Slugger awards.

Helton got in after six years trying, with 79.7 percent of votes.

He was a brilliant offensive player, slashing .316/.414/.539 with a .953 OPS, 2,519 hits, 369 home runs, and 1,406 RBI.

Helton is a Colorado Rockies legend and was a 1.000+ OPS player at his peak.

Leyland was an MLB manager for 22 seasons, winning the 1997 World Series with the Miami Marlins and then leading the Detroit Tigers to two Fall Classic appearances in 2006 and 2012.

He won 1,769 games as a skipper and was a three-time Manager of the Year.

There you have it: the new group of immortals are being celebrated in grand fashion in the last few hours.
