A wrecker prepares to pull a van from a ditch near Castle Rock, Wash., May 26, 1980 after the vehicle slid off the road, which is covered with a mixture of volcanic ash from nearby Mount St. Helens and rain. Volcano erupted on Sunday sending a plume 40,000 feet into the air. Much of the area, including nearby Portland, was covered with the fine substance. (AP Photo/Doug Wilson)

Four dwarfs wearing space suits landed by helicopter on the baseball diamond at Chicago's Comisky Park on May 26, 1959. They advanced on the White Sox dugout with ray guns before the start of the game with the Cleveland Indians. The stunt was put on by Indians' owner Bill Veeck who once used a little person in the lineup when he was running the St. Louis Browns baseball team. One of the men in space suits was three-foot, seven-inch Eddie Gaedel who pinch-hit for St. Louis in 1951. (AP Photo)

FILE - In this May 26, 199, 5 file photo, Seattle Mariners' Ken Griffey Jr. makes a leaping catch of a ball hit by Kevin Bass of the Baltimore Orioles during a baseball game in Seattle. Ken Griffey Jr. seems assured of election to the Baseball hall of Fame on the first try Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2016, possibly with a record vote of close to 100 percent. Mike Piazza, Jeff Bagwell and Tim Raines also were strong candidates to gain the 75 percent needed for baseball's highest honor. (AP Photo/Gary Stewart, File)
