FULL SPEECH: Adrian Beltré's Hall of Fame induction speech was ONE FOR THE AGES! 

Wow! I'm honored that Adrian included me in his speech. I was that third baseman who asked him to switch positions. I knew he would make one of the best players even back then. Congratulations Kojak! Bendiciones mi hermano!

LA Dodger fan here. I was devastated when the Dodgers let Adrian walk. One of the most talented baseball players I have ever watched. What a career, congratulations Adrian!!!

Certain players exude a genuine love for the game and it can be felt by others. Adrian was one of those guys you could feel the love of loving to play and as a kid that used to play that’s all you could ask for because you remember when you felt that way. Thank you for that Adrian Beltre, well deserved.

2:31 - Gotta love Big Papi with the head rub!

Congratulations on your accomplishments and joining the class of 2024 Baseball Hall of Fame , well deserved!

Thank you Adrian for everything you did for my Seattle mariners and for MLB in general

Very happy and proud of Adrain Beltre. Born and raised in my hometown, I’m pretty sure everyone are very happy there. Orgullo nuestro

Que orgulloso estamos los dominicanos de ti Adrián que Dios derrame bendiciones sobre ti

One of the best 3B of all time, the only thing missing from this guy' resume is a World Series ring.

The brotherly love between Beltre and Felix is something I still miss. Congratulations, Adrian. I can only hope that Felix will one day share the podium with you.

Loved watching Beltre play the game. So much energy, flare, humor and pizzazz. It was a pleasure to see him grow as a player

Absolutely great class inducted this year. All three players were great all around players who could run, hit, throw and field.

We loved Adrian in Seattle. He was not only so very talented but also funny. In fact, I am surprised he did not point to the umpires to check his speech 😅 ;), if you know..... you know. This is so very well deserved!!!!!!!

One of the best to ever do it

Yankee fan here! This man deserves it. One of the nicest dudes in the league & was so great at what he did. Congrats man

Funniest player ever and the best defender of the modern era. I'll never forget the on-deck circle bit as long as I live.

As a Texas Rangers fan I will miss Beltré on the field. You can see the love he had for the game. He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame and I am so happy for him. He will always be one of my favorite players of all time!

Well-deserved Hall of Fame

What a wonderful speech, perhaps the best of the year. It was funny yet came from the heart, while thanking everybody from his childhood classmate to the clubhouse guys!

Waoooo que orgullo siento mi república Dominicana en alto vivaa

Great defender for his entire career. That's rare.

Way to go Mr. BELTRE

DOMINICANO y yaaa🇩🇴♥️

Greatest hitter and player wont be another

A true gentleman with lots of passion for the game. Great speech too

I remember seeing Beltre was on his way to 3k hits at a rangers game a few years back. Glad he went and did that because that is a rare feat only a handful of players can attain. Now he's immortalized there in Cooperstown.

5 de mi país y 19 latinos Dios bendiga a todos los ligados al deporte

That was amazing

Rangers fan here. I enjoyed watching him play ball he played with so much passion I admire him and tried to model my game after him. You will forever be loved by the Rangers fans Adrian beltre.

Class Act right there. Coming from an A’s fan

Yo, he earned it!

Love you Belts

God bless the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC congrat Adrián Beltré

Arriba Dominicana

Adrian was an outstanding Seattle Mariner. But he wasn't truly appreciated by baseball fans until he played for Texas. During those years i wished he had stayed in Seattle.

que, contenta estoy bendicion para todos allá Dios bendiga tu carrera

love you Belt

As a Phillies Phan, Beltre was never on my radar over whether to jeer or cheer him, but man he was just a great,joyful dude and overall great player His hatred of getting his head touched & how teammates teased him should be on his plaque That and his love for the game highlights were a delight during his career Overall this was a great Induction year, each player was a 5 tool player or damn close to it while also being a leader & ambassador to the game

Plátano power 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴

Muy merecido Campeón saludos desde Venezuela 🇻🇪

I don't know about his SPEECH BEING ONE FOR THE AGES......BUT HIS CAREER WAS MOST DEFINITELY ONE FOR THE AGES!!@

God bless Beltre

Someone should count the times he said “thank you”. Must be over 100. “If the only prayer you ever say is ‘Thank You’, it will be sufficient.” - Augustine

Excelente 🇩🇴🌿🇩🇴

Papi is hilarious... He knows Beltré hates ppl touchin' his head... Not too many ppl can get away wit that😂😂🤷🏾‍♂️

Tommy Lasorda ⚾️

No because i am dominican but We Dominican peoples We are the ones who have the mos ttake advantage of the opportunities in USA and we are grateful for this country❤  

No doubt about it, HOF let's go....

Best 3rd baseman of all time ladies and gents 🐐

Wasn't cooked when he called it quits either.

REPÚBLICA DOMINICANA

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I never thought of him as a Hall Of Famer

Tan bueno qué hubo que subirle de 15 a 16 años para los Dodgers firmarlo pues 16 era la edad mínima

3base con más hits

BELTRE!!!!!!!!

🇩🇴💯

Dodgers thought he was done. They didn’t want to pay Piazza or Beltré

🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴

nuestro país DR🇩🇴y el mundo sabe que el se hiva unanime, solo le hicieron un daño.

Se junto a Smith a Jons a BOSS a la leyenda de los Orióles Robinson

Godson of Felipe.

"Hall of Fame Family" -- good grief.

No love for ichiro?
