KANSAS CITY, Mo. (June 12, 2025) — Alex Gordon became the newest addition to the Kansas City Royals Hall of Fame. Gordon was the second overall pick in the 2005 Major League draft. He also became a three-time American League All-Star. But as Greg Echlin reports, Gordon’s path to Royals stardom had its share of setbacks.
Alex Gordon will be inducted into the Royals Hall of Fame Friday, June 13th, before the Royals play the A’s at Kauffman Stadium (7:10 pm).
The 41-year-old Gordon will be the 31st inductee into the Royals Hall of Fame and will receive a blue jacket, joining the likes of his former manager, Ned Yost, and other team legends, including George Brett and Bo Jackson.
