Indeed, I do think that's a large part of what got him in. From all I've read, Dawson is a great guy, a wonderful teammate, and a fine leader. I wouldn't have voted for him (Getting on base is the most important thing a hitter can do, and Dawson's .323 On-Base-Average is the worst of any Hall of Famer by far) but there were other strong considerations and he slots in with a number of players already in the Hall.
