With a third of baseball’s Hall of Fame ballots revealed, Chipper Jones has received a nod from 99 percent of the voters.
Baseball Hall of Fame ballot tracker Ryan Thibodaux reveals in a tweet that of 156 ballots, 154 contained a vote for Chipper.
Former Braves teammate Andruw Jones was tracking far behind the required 75 percent needed for induction into Cooperstown.
