CHICAGO -- Paul Konerko did not receive the required 5% of support from the ballots cast by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America to remain on future ballots for election to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

So, the White Sox first baseman finishing with 10 votes of the 397 cast (2.5%) means his first time on this ballot will be his only time. But that outcome won’t diminish the great career produced by Konerko.

“I’m just disappointed he didn’t get a chance to stay on the ballot because this guy was a middle-of-the-order guy, he was a leader, he won a World Series,” said Hall of Famer Jim Thome, a teammate of Konerko for parts of four seasons with the White Sox, on MLB Network Tuesday night. “It would have been nice to see him remain on and see where he would have gone from there.

“He had really good numbers. This guy had a really great career. He should be very proud of that.”

Derek Jeter (396 of 397 votes, 99.7%) and Larry Walker (304 of 397, 76.6%) both had their names called on Tuesday and will be inducted in Cooperstown, N.Y., on July 26.

Konerko is immortalized on the South Side, with a statue dedicated in his honor on the Guaranteed Rate Field concourse. His No. 14 White Sox jersey has been retired, and he’s arguably one of the most important players, not to mention most productive, in franchise history.

Of his 18 big league seasons, Konerko spent 16 of them on the South Side. That longevity and connection to one team was something Konerko wore proudly while also serving as the team captain, as named by manager Ozzie Guillen in 2006 until he retired after 2014.

He joined Hall of Famer Frank Thomas as the only two players in franchise history to top 400 career home runs with 432 as a member of the White Sox. Konerko ranked in the Top 3 in 11 career categories for the White Sox, including No. 1 with 4,010 total bases and No. 1 with 13 seasons of at least 20 home runs.

And no one associated with the White Sox will ever forget Konerko’s seventh-inning grand slam off of Chad Qualls in Game 2 of the 2005 World Series during the team’s four-game championship sweep of Houston. Konerko had seven homers over 80 postseason plate appearances and finished with 439 home runs, 1,412 RBIs, 2,340 hits and an .841 OPS.

Dunn knocked out 106 of his 462 career homers during parts of four seasons with the White Sox. Putz recorded a 2.83 ERA and three saves over 60 games with the White Sox in 2010, while Penny pitched one season for Triple-A Charlotte in 2015.
