Dodgers Congratulate Adrián Beltré After Election To Baseball Hall Of Fame

In parts of seven seasons with the Dodgers, Beltré hit .274/.332/.463 with 176 doubles, 147 home runs and 510 RBI over 966 games.

Beltré enjoyed his best season with the Dodgers in 2004, when he batted .334/.388/.629 with 32 doubles, an MLB-leading 48 home runs and 121 RBI across 156 games.

Beltré accumulated 9.6 WAR that year en route to a Silver Slugger Award and second-place finish in National League MVP voting.

Beltré hoped to remain with the Dodgers for the rest of his career, but he ultimately joined the Seattle Mariners as a free agent. He spent five years with the organization before going on to have stints with the Boston Red Sox (2010) and Texas Rangers (2011-2018).

Beltré played 2,759 of his 2,933 career games at third base, second only to the 2,870 by Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson.

On career lists, Beltre ranks ninth in at-bats (11,068), 11th in doubles (636), 15th in total bases (5,309), 15th in extra base hits (1,151), 18th in hits (3,166), 25th in runs batted in (1,707) and 31st in home runs (477).

Dodgers who fell short of induction to Baseball Hall of Fame

Bobby Abreu, Adrián González, Andruw Jones, Gary Sheffield, Manny Ramírez, Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley were among the other players with ties to the Dodgers who fell short of induction to the Hall of Fame.

Jones inched closer to possibly joining Cooperstown by appearing on 61.6% of 2024 ballots. Meanwhile, Ramírez garnered 32.5% of votes, Utley received 28.8%, Rollins had 14.8% and Abreu rounded out the group of former Dodgers at 14.8%.

Sheffield and González fell off the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot for 2025. Sheffield was in final year of eligibility, while González did not reach the minimum amount of votes to return to the ballot.
