HE NEEDS TO BE IN THE HALL OF FAME

Yes, he absolutely belongs in the HOF. That veterans committee that got Harold Baines and Edgar Martinez in need to get McGriff in.

THE SWEET, SWEET swing of the legendary Atlanta Brave Freddie "CRIME DOG" Mcgriff.
FINALLY. McGriff finally getting in the HOF. Truly deserving. As always. GO BRAVES!!!!
He had one of the coolest looking swings ever. I loved the way the bat came back over his head.

Helicopter finish was dope
The guy had a amazing swing I don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody swing the ball like that he was great never forget Fred mcgriff
Just went about his business I loved watching him play
I loved his HR trot. It’s like he was saying “Aww shucks, guess I hit another one. Let me get these steps in now.”
He was a good first baseman too.
I can't believe they still have not put him in after 10 year's on the ballot.
I love the sound of the ball hitting the pole the crime dog was the man he was an easy first ballot hall of famer
It’s official! He’s in the HOF!!!
People today get overhyped and wanna showboat. For McGriff it was just another day at the office. Not overly animated, no yelling, and no showboating.

no gangma style lol
I don't have a bit of love loss for oral herschizer, But when mcgriff hit that pitch I kind of felt sorry for the guy because there was no doubt about it
Him and Chipper will always be my favorite braves players
Are you kidding me 7:11...without even looking as he followed through on that swing?! Nobody does the windmill swing better than him😲

one of my favorite swing ever
I want to see the one he hit off of Tomme Greene of the Phillies in game 2 of the 1993 NLCS. It was a "mammoth"
Man that one he hit off Orel was absolutely nuked! I’m so glad he’s finally headed to cooperstown!
There was something so cool about guys just shaking hands after a walk off home run. Now you have these children throwing chocolate sauce and gummy bears and paddling each other like a pride parade.

1 of a couple favorite Braves. Then David Justice, Chipper Jones
he made the ball echo
With those numbers, and that iconic mustache, it's unreal to me how long it took him to get into the Hall. Personally, I think it's a Crime, Dog!
it's an outrage that he's not in the HOF. He was very quiet, modest, a non-juicer. He was a huge contributor on great Braves teams that won a WS. There are zero reasons for him not to be in the HOF. Plenty of players in the 450-499 HR range are in the HOF if they had overall strong careers.
One of my favorite players growing up,, and played the game with honor
Shameful he's not in the HOF. More deserving of so many that are already in.
He made it y’all!!!!
its a travesty mcgriff isn't in the hall of fame. 7 consecutive 30 homerun seasons. .284 avg. 1500 rbi. absolute travesty
No longer under-rated. Being a Giants fan I hated him, however, being a baseball fan I admire him. Congrats on making it Fred, very deserved.
I’m really glad McGriff is in the HOF. His 493 homers match another great Lou Gehrig. I remember him retiring, before he could hit 500. He would have definitely made it, if he was signed in 2005.
Miller & Morgan! Good times!
Sweet sweet effortless swing with a twist
the Fire Dog, McGruff!
Always wondered how Mchriff stood so far away from the plate, yet was able to have duch good plate coverage
I miss this team SO much...
The fact that guys like Mcgriff and Andruw Jones and Jim Edmonds. I could keep going because there is a long list are not in the hall of frame is criminal. The voters should be stripped of their votes
Get this man in the hall
remember the radio booth catching fire & delayed game like few hrs, nobody hurt thankfully
I was actually there with my fam 30 years ago
McGriff was the perfect example of providing the missing piece for a championship team. The Braves had good hitters but not that one big-time threat that pitchers were afraid of pitching to - and who affected how pitchers pitched to the other guys around him. Without him, the Braves are the 1990s Buffalo Bills with no championships.
Missed watching the braves games on tbs
he was clutch
He’s not because of the 1994 strike.
