Beltrán will have Mets cap on Hall of Fame plaque, Jones gets Braves and Kent has Giants

Beltrán, Jones, and Kent will wear caps reflecting teams tied to their peak careers, with Beltrán joining Mets legends Seaver and Piazza in the Hall of Fame.

  • On Tuesday, the Hall announced Carlos Beltrán will have a Mets cap, Andruw Jones a Braves hat, and Jeff Kent a Giants logo, two weeks after BBWAA elections.
  • The hall announced Tuesday that Beltrán and Jones were elected by the BBWAA, and Kent was chosen by the committee in December.
  • Beltrán compiled career totals including 435 homers, 312 stolen bases and 2,725 hits in 2,586 games, ranking high in Mets franchise metrics.
  • The cap choices cement how each player will be represented historically; Beltrán will be the third player in the Hall to wear a Mets cap, joining Tom Seaver and Mike Piazza.
  • Kent said, `Each of the stops along my career path was important to me, but it was with the Giants where I had the most success and spent the most time during my career` after the Hall of Fame announcement.
