Former Braves slugger Chipper Jones became a dad again last week.

Jones’ fifth son came after a few days of anticipation.

On Saturday, he introduced fans to his son with a tweet: “I would like everyone to meet Cutler Ridge Jones. He's ugly, his momma dresses him funny.....but he's chill! #PEACE”

Jones has been a special assistant with the Braves since 2015. After manager Fredi Gonzalez was fired in May 2016, Jones told Atlanta's 680-AM The Fan he was enjoying his time with family and wasn't interested in a full-time return to the game.
