Well, as a life long Mets fan, by the end of that film I was crying. I’ll never forget what Gil meant to the Mets. Never.

The waiting is over!!! Gil is a Hall of Famer. Thank goodness Gil's wife lived to see it. She's 95 ! Makes me a bit teary eyed...

Gil Hodges belongs in the Hall of Fame. His playing career alone should've put him in the HOF. Let's make this right!

I went to grammar school for three years with Gil Hodges Jr. at the former Our Lady Help of Christians School and lived across the street from the family on East 32nd Street. My father and I were ushers at his wake and funeral. Gil Sr. use to attend the 9 am mass on Sunday morning in the basement church. He would arrive in time for mass and my Dad would pull out a folding chair for Gil to sit at the end of the last pew in the back of the church so he could stretch out his knees in the aisle. Gil would quietly get up just before mass was over so he could walk up the stairs and get onto Avenue M before his fellow parishoners could begin to come up the stairs. We knew he was famous and beloved in Brooklyn and our parish, but to us, he was just our neighbor. He is the only non priest or religious nun or brother, that I have heard of who laid out in a Catholic church for their wake.The first night of his wake was in a funeral home. I remember when Gil's brother came up to introduce himself before the people were allowed into the church. I remember as if it was today when the Daily News interviewed me for an estimation as to how many people had come into the wake. We can only imagine how successful the Mets would have been in the 70s and 80s and maybe the 90s with Gil at the helm. After watching this wonderful film and hearing my former classmate talk about his Dad and seeing the who's who at his funeral, one has to wonder why Gil is not in the Baseball Hall of Fame. We know from watching the video, he definetly in the Ultimate Hall of Fame in heaven.

AS towering and impressive as the man and the player himself. All of us should Pray for Gil Hodges--to at long last grace the Hall of Fame and honor it by his presence there!

Wow! This was great. Gil certainly belongs in the Hall of Fame. Numbers have been inflated in recent years, but he was number 10 all time career HR leader at end of his career. Best fielding 1B in baseball. Tremendous teammate whose integrity reflected well on his team and all of baseball. His son Gil Jr is a chip off the old block, and I am sure his dad is quite proud of him.

Incredibly well done. Gil really is somebody to admire as a professional athlete and as a Catholic. That closing song is fire too 🔥

Played on Gil Hodges field as a young man on Brentwood Long Island. Whatched him as manager of NY Mets. He deserves all accolades 👏

HE MADE IT. !!!!!! Our beloved Gil is in the HOF!!!

I live no less that 50 feet from Gils home in Petersburg, Indiana. Nobody lives there anymore, but it is maintained and upkeep is done often by whoever owns it now. My Uncle mowed the lawn for Gils mother for years, and has lots of Gil memorabilia. My uncle is now an artist that helped erect a large mural here in Petersburg dedicated to Gil. He even put me in the stands of the painting along with many locals. It's a wonderful painting/dedication to Gil. Our little league for 40 plus years has had a team named "Hodges Dodgers". Everybody wanted on that team, still do.

Make room Cooperstown!. Gil Hodges is coming home... December 2021🙌

I feel deep within my guts that Gil makes it this time.....FINALLY!!!!!!! This is so long overdue.

Made it to the hall of fame… finally !

Wow

Let's hope Gil finally gets his due this year. What a man and a player of the game!

Tremendous documentary…Gil Hodges needs to be in the hall of fame…

Amazing documentary, very inspiring story of a great role model! During the year of St. Joseph, I can't think of a better model of humility and leadership for baseball. I'm praying that he can make it to Cooperstown this Advent. We need more men like Gil Hodges. St. Joseph, pray for us.

Vin you taught me so much by example.

This wonderful documentary contributed to Gil’s cause and why he is where he deserves…Thank you for creating this outstanding memory of a ball player that many have forgotten or don’t know about…I loved posting this in every social media site possible related to Gil and his career….just elated to see this man of true faith in the HOF!

It may have taken a long time and it was long over due. However Gil Hodges Hall of Fame induction happen at the right time. Among all days he goes into the Hall of Fame on the day of my Birthday!! As you get older Birthdays are nothing to brag about. But now July 24 now has meeting to me again . Greatest Birthday ever to see Gil Hodges in the hall of fame.
