Hall of Famer Andruw Jones, Class of 2026, sits down with Jon Paul Morosi to discuss his unconventional journey to Cooperstown. From being discovered on the baseball-crazed island nation of Curaçao by a scout who was there to watch someone else play, to his historic performance in Game 1 of the 1996 World Series — something he actually predicted before the contest — to developing into one of the greatest defensive center fielders in baseball history, the 10-time Gold Glove Award winner reflects on the highs and lows of a career that ultimately landed him among the game’s all-time greats.
