Adrián Beltré Jr. -- the son of of the future Hall of Fame third baseman -- is making a name for himself, both at the hot corner and on the mound.
Héctor Gómez of Z101 Digital shared videos of the 15-year-old shining on the mound in a recent game:
The elder Beltré is the all-time leader in defensive runs saved -- which began being tracked in 2003 -- with 200. His son appears to have inherited some of the same great instincts in the field as well:
And like his father, who had 3,166 hits during his career, Beltré Jr. appears to be able to handle the bat:
Beltré will become eligible for the Hall of Fame ballot in 2024, and the five-time Gold Glove Award winner is likely to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer. After all, he homered 477 times during 21-year career spent with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Seattle Mariners, Boston Red Sox and Texas Rangers. From the looks of things, his son could follow in his footsteps not long after.
