The first two baseballs Chipper Jones signed as a Hall of Famer were for his parents

When a player is inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame, his phone instantly goes wild with calls and texts of congratulations from friends, family and the media.

Having earned votes on 410 out of 422 Hall of Fame ballots, Jones and his family most certainly did it.
