VIDEO: Andruw Jones' Son Rips Grand Slam and Delivers Epic Bat Flip
Andruw Jones had a great MLB career that was mostly spent with the Atlanta Braves. Jones' own son now plays high school baseball in the state of Georgia, and is already a highly-regarded prospect at the age of 16. The younger Jones is already looking like his dad out there, as he recently launched a grand slam and celebrated with an epic bat flip.
The Vanderbilt commit has a gorgeous swing, and clearly has the power that led his dad to hit 434 home runs. The bat flip was a nice (and swaggering) added touch, and could be a preview of what is to be seen from Druw if he reaches the big leagues one day.
Moonshots like the one Jones hit could mean the young man gets drafted right out of high school and passes up Vandy altogether. That would expedite his path to the bright lights of the MLB, something that's sure to excite all the fans who spent years getting wowed by his dad's big shots at the plate and highlight defensive plays in center field.
