At long last, Bo Jackson is getting his due. Jackson, the only American professional athlete to be named an all-star in two major sports, is finally getting a Hall of Fame induction recognizing his one-of-a-kind professional career 30 years after playing in his final game.
Jackson, 61, will be inducted into the Royals Hall of Fame during an on-field ceremony ahead of Saturday’s home game between Kansas City and the Cleveland Guardians. Jackson spent five of his eight MLB seasons with the Royals. As a member of the Royals in 1989, Jackson was named the MVP of the All-Star Game on the strength of his home run that jump-started the American League’s eventual 5-3 win.
