Chipper Jones Speaker & Booking Information

Larry Wayne "Chipper" Jones Jr. is widely regarded as one of the greatest switch hitters in Major League Baseball (MLB) history. Born on April 24, 1972, Jones spent his entire 19-year career with the Atlanta Braves, a rare feat in modern professional sports. Drafted first overall in the 1990 MLB Draft, Jones quickly became a cornerstone of the Braves' success throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. His versatility as a third baseman and his ability to hit from both sides of the plate made him a formidable presence in the lineup, contributing to the Braves' 1995 World Series championship.

Jones' career was filled with individual accolades that solidified his place among baseball's elite. He was an eight-time All-Star and won the National League (NL) Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award in 1999, a season in which he also earned the Silver Slugger Award for third basemen. His consistency at the plate was further demonstrated when he won the NL batting title in 2008, finishing the season with an impressive .364 batting average. Jones' ability to perform at a high level for nearly two decades is reflected in his career statistics, which include a .303 batting average, 468 home runs, and 1,623 RBIs.

Among switch hitters, Jones ranks second only to Eddie Murray in career RBIs, and he is the only switch hitter in MLB history to finish his career with a batting average of at least .300 and 400 or more home runs. His legacy is further cemented by his place in Braves history, where he holds the team record for career on-base percentage (.402) and ranks third in home runs. Jones' ability to maintain such high standards of performance over a long career is a testament to his work ethic and natural talent, making him one of the most respected figures in the sport.

In recognition of his contributions to the game, the Braves retired Jones' number 10 jersey in 2013, and he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2018, his first year of eligibility. After his playing career, Jones continued to stay involved in baseball, serving as an ESPN color analyst and later returning to the Braves as an assistant hitting consultant in 2021. His impact on the game, both as a player and a mentor, ensures that his legacy will endure for generations to come.
