Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame

The Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame was instituted in 1995 to recognize the careers of selected former Boston Red Sox players, coaches and managers, and non-uniformed personnel. A 15-member selection committee of Red Sox broadcasters and executives, past and present media personnel, and representatives from The Sports Museum of New England and the BoSox Club are responsible for nominating candidates.

Criteria

The criteria for selection into the Hall is as follows:

Player to be eligible for nomination must have played a minimum of three years with the Boston Red Sox and must also have been out of uniform as an active player a minimum of three years.
Non-uniformed honorees such as broadcasters and front office execs are inducted by a unanimous vote of the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame selection committee. The memorable moment will be chosen by the committee as well.
Former Boston Red Sox players and personnel in the [National National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum|Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum|National Baseball Hall of Fame] in Cooperstown, New York, will be automatically enshrined in the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame.
