All members of the Baseball Hall of Fame are considered equal -- you either are a Hall of Famer or you aren't. The year that you join is called your "class," and the first such class -- ie, the "first class" -- is given a special room at the Hall of Fame. These five are, indeed, considered the cream of the crop of baseball players.
