If you found yourself inspired by Larry Walker’s choice of garb on the day of his Hall of Fame election announcement, you weren’t alone.

Walker was elected into the Hall of Fame on his 10th and final try Tuesday night, receiving 304 votes from eligible members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America to clear the 75% requirement by just six votes.
That included The Post’s own Mark Kiszla, who dubbed Walker’s sartorial choice “perfect.”
“Walker is not only the best hitter ever to wear a Rockies uniform, he might also be a bigger goofball than SpongeBob,” Kiszla wrote.
