He was a 19-time <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="Major League Baseball All-Star Game">All-Star</a> and was twice named <a href="/wiki/American_League" title="American League">American League</a> (AL) <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Most_Valuable_Player_Award" title="Major League Baseball Most Valuable Player Award">Most Valuable Player (MVP)</a>, in 1983 and 1991. Ripken holds the <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_consecutive_games_played_streaks" class="mw-redirect" title="Major League Baseball consecutive games played streaks">record for consecutive games played</a> (2,632), having surpassed <a href="/wiki/Lou_Gehrig" title="Lou Gehrig">Lou Gehrig</a>'s streak of 2,130 which had stood for 56 years and which many deemed was <a href="/wiki/List_of_Major_League_Baseball_records_considered_unbreakable" title="List of Major League Baseball records considered unbreakable">unbreakable</a>. In <a href="/wiki/2007_Baseball_Hall_of_Fame_balloting" title="2007 Baseball Hall of Fame balloting">2007</a>, he was elected to the <a href="/wiki/National_Baseball_Hall_of_Fame_and_Museum" title="National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum">Baseball Hall of Fame</a> in his first year of eligibility with 98.53% of votes, the sixth-highest election percentage ever to-date. Born in <a href="/wiki/Maryland" title="Maryland">Maryland</a>, Ripken grew up traveling around the United States as his father, <a href="/wiki/Cal_Ripken_Sr." title="Cal Ripken Sr.">Cal Sr.</a>, was a player and coach in the Orioles' organization. After playing at <a href="/wiki/Aberdeen_High_School_(Maryland)" title="Aberdeen High School (Maryland)">Aberdeen High School</a>, Ripken Jr. was drafted by the Orioles in the second round of the <a href="/wiki/1978_Major_League_Baseball_draft" title="1978 Major League Baseball draft">1978 MLB draft</a>. He reached the major leagues in 1981 as a shortstop but moved to third base in 1982,<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> but the following year, he was shifted back to shortstop, his long-time position for Baltimore. That year, Ripken also won the AL <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Rookie_of_the_Year_Award" title="Major League Baseball Rookie of the Year Award">Rookie of the Year Award</a> and began his consecutive games played streak. In 1983, he won a <a href="/wiki/1983_World_Series" title="1983 World Series">World Series</a> championship over the <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia_Phillies" title="Philadelphia Phillies">Philadelphia Phillies</a> and his first AL MVP Award. One of Ripken's best years came in 1991 when he was named an All-Star, won the <a href="/wiki/Home_Run_Derby_(Major_League_Baseball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Home Run Derby (Major League Baseball)">Home Run Derby</a>, and was the recipient of his first <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game_Most_Valuable_Player_Award" title="Major League Baseball All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award">All-Star Game MVP Award</a>, his second AL MVP Award, and first Gold Glove Award. He broke the consecutive games played record on September 6, 1995, in his 2,131st consecutive game, which fans voted as the league's "most memorable moment" in the history of the game in an MLB.com poll; Ripken voluntarily ended his 17-year streak at 2,632 games before the final home game of the 1998 season. He switched back to third base for the final five years of his career. In 2001, his final season, Ripken was named the All-Star Game MVP and was honored with the <a href="/wiki/Commissioner%27s_Historic_Achievement_Award" title="Commissioner's Historic Achievement Award">Commissioner's Historic Achievement Award</a>. Ripken is considered one of the best shortstops in baseball history. At 6 ft 4 in (1.93 m), 225 lb (102 kg), he pioneered the way for the success of taller, larger shortstops. He holds the record for most home runs hit as a shortstop, at 345, breaking the record of 298 previously held by <a href="/wiki/Ernie_Banks" title="Ernie Banks">Ernie Banks</a>, and was selected as the starting shortstop for the <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_All-Century_Team" title="Major League Baseball All-Century Team">Major League Baseball All-Century Team</a>. Ripken is a best-selling author and the President and CEO of Ripken Baseball, Inc., whose goal is to expand the love of baseball from a grassroots level.
