Texas Rangers legend Adrian Beltre is now a Baseball Hall of Famer after his induction speech in Cooperstown, N.Y., on Sunday.
Last week Adrián Beltré said he had done plenty of work and experienced plenty of stress over his Baseball Hall of Fame induction speech.
Celebrated for his talent, being a great teammate and his eccentricities, he talked about joining the ranks of baseball’s greatest players during his speech, part of which he delivered in Spanish.The past week Beltré has geared up for this moment. He coached the American League team in the MLB Futures game last Saturday. He threw out the first pitch for Tuesday’s All-Star Game alongside three Rangers who are already in Cooperstown — Nolan Ryan, Ivan Rodriguez and Ferguson Jenkins.
Beltré retired after the 2018 season. He spent the final eight seasons of his career with the Rangers, where he signed as a free agent before the 2011 season.
