Eternally enshinred for your enjoyment

Just a reminder that the latest class of inductees into The Shrine of the Eternals -- Yogi Berra, Jim Brosnan and Bill James -- takes place Sunday (2 p.m.) at the Donald R. Wright Auditorium in the Pasadena Central Library (285 E. Walnut Street), which is the highlight event of the year for the Baseball Reliquary.
In the vote for the 2007 class, James (35 percent) had the greatest support of the voters among 50 candidates, followed by Berra (34 percent) and Brosnan (31 percent). Casey Stengel (30 percent) and Bill Buckner (29 percent) just missed inclusion.
The Baseball Abstract author James expects to be in attendance; former Yankees catcher and Cooperstown Hall of Famer Berra won't be able to attend because of a perfious charity commitment and
former big-league pitcher and author Brosnan also won't be there because of health concerns.
