PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - There's a new move to get Phillies legend Dick Allen into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. On Thursday, Philadelphia City Council member Kenyatta Johnson will introduce a resolution calling for Allen to be elected as part of the class of 2027.

Allen died in 2020 at the age of 78.

He's fallen short of getting voted into the Hall of Fame, twice.
