MLB inducts new members into the Hall of Fame

Major League Baseball inducted six new members to its Hall of Fame.

Vladimir Guerro, Jim Thome, Trevor Hoffman, Chipper Jones, Jack Morris and Allen Trammel just became immortalized.

The celebration lasted all weekend culminating into the official induction.

Jim Thome’s daughter sung the National Anthem.

Chipper Jones had fond memories of his time as a Brave.

“Atlanta Braves fans showed me almost every night what it meant to believe in something almost unconditional. I want to thank Braves fans that are here today and are back home. As a player, traveling is one of the hardest things to do. Being away from our families and our fans. But with you, rather we were in St. Louis or Colorado or here in New York. When I stepped out of the dugout for batting practice and saw Braves fans ten deep sometimes stretched down to the foul pole, you made us feel like we never left home,” Jones said.
