[edit] Shortest in the HOF?

The article currently says that Keeler is "easily the shortest" player elected to the Hall of Fame, but gives his height as 5'7" (though it mentions that there is some dispute as to his actual height). Is he actually the shortest in the Hall? Hack Wilson, who was elected to the Hall in 1979, is listed at 5'6". Even if Keeler were actually shorter, it seems that he wouldn't "easily" be the shortest Hall of Famer. --Cheapestcostavoider 18:39, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
