Adrián Beltré still hasn’t had an opportunity to just stop and really let it soak in that he is enshrined in baseball’s Hall of Fame.

“I understand, and I know what that weekend was,” Beltré said. “But I’d be lying to you if I said that I have. ... It just hasn’t.”

Maybe after being recognized again by the Texas Rangers, the last team in his 21 big league seasons and the one the third baseman played with the longest.

Four weeks after his induction in Cooperstown along with Joe Mauer of the Twins, Todd Helton of the Rockies and manager Jim Leyland, the Rangers honored Beltré with a series of events, including a ceremony before their game against the Twins on Saturday night.

The Rangers surprised Beltré during the pregame ceremony when announcing plans for a bronze statue.
