SANTO GOLDEN?  Ten men are up for consideration for enshrinement to the National Baseball Hall of Fame by the 16-member Golden Era Committee, which considers players and executives active 1947-1973:
Buzzie Bavasi, Ken Boyer, Charlie Finley, Gil Hodges, Jim Kaat, Minnie Minoso, Tony Oliva, Allie Reynolds, Ron Santo and Luis Tiant.
It's a damn shame that Santo's deserved induction be posthumous, but let's hope it at least happens.
