Tom Verducci, the multi-faceted writer for *Sports Illustrated* and commentator for MLB Network and FOX Sports’ MLB coverage, received 100 votes.nnCandidates were chosen by a three-member, BBWAA-appointed committee and announced during the All-Star Game meeting July 15 in Atlanta. Voting was conducted by mail in November.nnHoynes has trekked to press boxes throughout North America and entertained colleagues with his patented “hawk call.” Covering more than 6,000 major league games, “Hoynsie” is the owner of the most bylines in *Cleveland Plain Dealer* history.nnStarting with Mike Ferraro in 1983, Hoynes has covered 13 Cleveland managers as well as 18 Opening Day starters and seven general managers. He chronicled 105-loss teams in front of hordes of seagulls and a handful of diehards at old Municipal Stadium and 100-win teams before capacity crowds at a buzzing Progressive Field.nnHoynes covered Cleveland’s last three World Series teams (all losses, two in Game 7 extra innings) and the tragic Spring Training boating accident in 1993 that claimed the lives of pitchers Steve Olin and Tim Crews.nnHoynes was elected to the Cleveland Journalism Hall of Fame in 2013. He served as president of the BBWAA in 2007 and was on the Cooperstown stage that year when Cal Ripken Jr. was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame, a fitting pairing of baseball’s Iron Man player and baseball’s Iron Man writer.nnFor more on the BBWAA Career Excellence Award, including a list of previous winners, please click
