The Golden Era committee will convene and vote Dec. 7 at the winter meetings in San Diego on the 73rd anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, one of several sites where Hodges later served as a Marine in the Pacific Theatre, where he earned a Bronze Star while putting his fledging major league career on hold. The results of the vote, in which the committee will consider 10 candidates who made their greatest impact from 1947-72, will be announced the following morning. Election requires being named on 12 of the 16 ballots (75 percent).
