If you decided to count these names for some reason, you would find that there are a few short. That's because I left out the Hall-of-Famers until right now. Only 3.85% of the players born on Christmas made it to the Hall (which is still way more than everybody combined). These Hall-of-Famers are Pud Galvin, Nellie Fox, and of course, Rickey Henderson.
Happy birthday to all these players.
And, in case you forgot the meaning of this post, Merry Christmas!
