Chipper Jones is one of the best switch hitters in baseball history. Only Mickey Mantle and Eddie Murray have more career home runs! Chipper was a hitting machine from both sides of the plate, and was a major part of the Atlanta Braves dynasty in the 1990s. His ability to come up big in clutch moments was present from Opening Day into the postseason. Chipper had well documented success against Randy Johnson, arguably the greatest pitcher of his generation. From a small town kid to one of baseball’s all time greats, Chipper Jones’ legacy transcends the era he played in.

My favorite baseball player of all time, my entire life I can remember watching him on TBS 4-5 days a week. He was the reason I wore my socks high when I played baseball...He was always just so consistent and clutch. Rafael Furcal, Marcus Giles, Chipper Jones, Gary Sheffield, Andruw Jones, Julio Franco, Javy Lopez, Vinny Castilla and then the pitcher, that was my favorite lineup in the history of sports...like 2002, 2003 seasons.....Every game was just a treat to watch and I will always remember with fond memories.

He was super cool to everyone that wanted to take a picture with him. I was also at his last game, the infamous "Infield Fly Rule" game in the postseason against the Cards. I wasn't a part of throwing garbage on the field, which was SURREAL. But in his last ever AB.. he recorded an infield single, in the same way he scored his first hit in 1993. Thanks for the video!!!

My son started playing baseball in the late 80s. As a kid myself, I loved the game. I gravitated to the Braves as the team I liked. Talking with my dad, I mentioned how I really liked them. He then found an old picture of me when I played ball wearing a Braves uniform. Guess that's where it all began. They were an easy team to like in the 90s. I have many good memories of my son playing ball and also watching the Braves.

I idolized Chipper and played 3rd from litttle league all the way to jv (coach moved me to center for varsity because i was the fastest guy on the team and could cover ground). Not only was Chipper a good ballplayer, but he is a good man and role model.
