St. Paul produces a fourth Baseball Hall of Famer in Joe Mauer

Joe Mauer's election to the National Baseball Hall of Fame on Tuesday gives St. Paul some serious credibility in Cooperstown.

Zoom in: Mauer becomes the fourth son of the city to be elected to the hall.

He will soon join fellow Cretin-Derham Hall alum Paul Molitor, Central's Dave Winfield and Highland Park's Jack Morris.

By the numbers: Players from St. Paul now make up about 1% of the Hall of Fame's nearly 350 members.
