On Tuesday, the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum revealed the 2025 Hall of Fame class, which included former Boston Red Sox reliever Billy Wagner. Wagner, 53, was a first-round pick of the Houston Astros in the 1993 MLB draft out of Ferrum College. He debuted with Houston in 1995 and was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies in 2004.

Longtime closer Billy Wagner, who pitched for the Red Sox in 2009, was elected to the Hall of Fame in his 10th and final year of eligibility.
