Jones Latest HOF Legend Wednesday, January 3rd , 2080 Good relievers can often go unappreciated and unnoticed. That was not the case today when Ransom Jones was inducted into the Pro Baseball Experience Hall of Fame. He will go down in history as one of the more dominant relievers of his generation. Jones was 34 when he retired from baseball. Speaking at his induction, one of his managers observed, "A guy who throws what he intends to throw, that's the definition of a good pitcher. That's why Ransom was such a great pitcher." In an illustrious career Jones nailed down 134 saves, appeared in 589 games, fashioned a 76-48 won-loss record with a 2.89 ERA, and had 1206 strikeouts in 957.2 innings. |
