Who was.... ?

Who was the first player of Latino descent to be elected to Cooperstown?

Update:

Too easy?

Ted's maternal grandparents were Natalia Hernandez and Pablo Venzor. The settled around Hidalgo del Parral and Valle de Allende in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. Natalia and Pablo were married in 1888; as political troubles began to brew in Mexico, they moved north to Texas. Ted Williams's mother, May, was born in El Paso in 1893, one of nine children. The family migrated west to Santa Barbara.

    He obviously wasn't completely Latino, but was of Mexican descent. His mom was of Basque descent, born in Mexico.
