Billy Kaufman Inducted into Hall Of Fame
Enshrinement beckoned for <Billy Kaufman:player#8229>, as he was inducted into the American Federation Baseball League Hall of Fame today. <Kaufman:player#8229>, who played most of his 2689 games at left fielder, was an outstanding hitter and batted .328 over his career and swatted 215 home runs. Baseball's newest legend collected 1208 RBIs and scored 1628 runs during his illustrious career.

But while he was class act on the field, it was off the field where <Billy Kaufman:player#8229> shined the most. He was most active in the Colorado Bears community, selflessly donating his time and money to various causes. The press was largely unaware of his charity and <Kaufman:player#8229> never made a fuss about it.

"I played a child's game for many years and this game brought me fame and fortune," <Kaufman:player#8229> explained during his ceremony. "For some people it's enough, but my mother raised me to realize that money doesn't make a person great. Being good at a game doesn't make a person great. Helping those in need and giving of yourself selflessly is what makes a person great. And that's what I have tried to be my entire life: great, both on the field and off of the field."
