Atlanta Braves great Chipper Jones may be retired, but he is still going above and beyond the call of duty for his teammates.

When Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman tweeted that he had been sitting in traffic due to a snowstorm for 5 and half hours, Chipper suited up in his finest camo snowsuit, jumped on his matching camo ATV and hit the streets to rescue his former teammate.

Going on 5 and a half hours in this traffic! Atlanta traffic is the worst but then you add snow...woah!!

A moment I'll never forget! ;)“@RealCJ10: He hugged me the whole way home!”

Home after 11 hours...

I suppose it's only appropriate that the name "Chipper Jones" already sounds like a perfect superhero alias.
