Mets nemesis Chipper "Larry" Jones elected to Hall of Fame

Chipper Jones -- a nemesis of Mets fans who serenaded him with "Larry" chants during his career -- has been elected to the Hall of Fame along with Vladimir Guerrero, Jim Thome and Trevor Hoffman.

Jones, who retired after the 2012 season, hit .309 with a .406 OBP and .543 SLG to go along with 49 HR and 159 RBI for his career against the Mets.

He even named one of his sons Shea, though he swears it wasn't just because of his success against the Mets at Shea Stadium.
