A federal report says Baseball Hall of Famer Roy Halladay had drugs in his system and was doing extreme acrobatics in his small plane when it crashed into Tampa Bay in 2017, killing him.

Over 600 home runs. More than 600 saves. A .300 career average. In the age of baseball analytics, there’s still room in the Hall of Fame for big, round numbers you can count on. Chipper Jones, Jim Thome, Vladimir Guerrero and Trevor Hoffman were rewarded Wednesday, easily elected in the newest class headed for Cooperstown.
