Adrian Beltré gets Rangers for plaque; no emblem for Leyland

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. -- Adrián Beltré will have a Texas Rangers logo on his baseball Hall of Fame plaque, while Jim Leyland will not have any team emblem.

The Hall of Fame made the announcement Friday, 10 days after Beltré was elected by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Leyland was elected in December by the contemporary era committee for managers, executives and umpires.

"I am grateful for the time I spent with all of my teams during my career," Beltré said in a statement issued by the Hall of Fame. "Looking back, I played more years in Texas than anywhere else and I believe my time with the Rangers represents the peak of my career, individually and from a team standpoint.
