Griffey takes his first swings tomorrow
I know I’m supposed to refer to him as Ken Griffey since his dad is retired, but he’ll always be a junior to me. Well, just Junior. Or “The Kid.” Whatever. He takes his first cuts as a Mariner once again against Australia's World Baseball Classic on Wednesday and I can’t wait.
