An End to a Hall of Fame Era

This past Friday night, Chipper Jones played his final Major League Baseball game. His, now foremr team, the Atlanta Braves lost to the St. Louis Cardinals 6-3 in Friday night's N.L. Wild Card playoff game. Jones made a critical error on a routine ground ball in the 4th inning, that would lead to the Cardinals scoring 3 runs. In the game, the umpires were under heavy scrutiny after two huge controversial calls that disallowed multiple Braves runs. Chipper Jones had his final at-bat in the ninth inning and recorded a infield single. The Braves brought the tying run up to bat, but were unable to score. After all the drama and Atlanta disappointment all us baseball fans, either at home or the game, watched a sure first-ballot hall of famer close a professional career that spanded 22 years.
