As many of you know, Chipper Jones ended his acclaimed career at the end of the 2012 Major League Baseball season, which essentially marked the countdown to his Cooperstown induction speech. The team that he spent his entire career with, the Atlanta Braves has decided to honor him right away.
The Braves have announced that they will induct Chipper Jones into their Hall of Fame and bestow upon him the ultimate accolade of retiring his number 10. Jones will be joining Dale Murphy (3), Bobby Cox (6), Warren Spahn (21), John Smoltz (29), Greg Maddux (31), Phil Niekro (35), Eddie Mathews (41), Hank Aaron (44) and Tom Glavine (47).
Chipper Jones retired with a career .303 Batting Average and 468 Home Runs over 19 seasons. We congratulate Chipper on this accomplishment and look forward to seeing the footage from the ceremony.
