Curt Schilling was shut out on Tuesday, falling 16 votes shy of induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in balloting conducted by the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
The former pitcher received 285 votes and was named on 71.1% of the ballots. He needed 75% to earn induction into Cooperstown. Schilling fell 20 votes shy of induction in 2020, when he received 70% of the vote.
Schilling wasn't alone, as no players earned induction for first time since 2013 and the ninth time overall.
