Carlos Beltrán will have a New York Mets cap on his Hall of Fame plaque, Andruw Jones will have an Atlanta Braves hat and Jeff Kent will have a San Francisco Giants logo.
The hall announced its decisions Tuesday, two weeks after Beltrán and Jones were elected by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. Kent was voted to the hall in December by the contemporary era committee.
Inductions will take place on July 26.
A nine-time All-Star center fielder, the switch-hitting Beltrán batted .279 with 435 homers and 1,587 RBIs over 20 seasons with Kansas City (1999-2004), Houston (2004, ’17), the Mets (2005-11), San Francisco (2011), St. Louis (2012-13), the New York Yankees (20014-16) and Texas (2016). He earned five All-Star selections and three Gold Gloves with the Mets.
“With the Mets, I experienced my greatest individual growth and success,” Beltrán said in a statement released by the hall. “I’m honored that my Hall of Fame plaque will feature the Mets logo.”
