Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia and Billy Wagner met with the media on Thursday as the newest members of the Baseball Hall of Fame.

In a video posted on X by sports writer Jose de Jesus Ortiz, Wagner leaned against a pool table while taking the call. He listened for more than 15 seconds before he put his hand on his face, fighting tears and hunching over. “Thank you,” he eventually said to the person on the other end of the phone.
