Big props today to Ken Griffey, Jr, who retired from baseball last night at the age of 40. 22 seasons, 13 All Star Games, 630 home runs, and arguably the sweetest swing baseball has ever seen. If you are anywhere close to my age and tell me Griffey was never your favorite player, you're lying.
Considered the greatest player in the game at one point, the man almost single handedly created a baseball atmosphere in Seattle. Enjoying Safeco Field people of Seattle? Thank Junior.
Everyone will remember him for his swing, his smile, and introducing the MLB to wearing your hat backwards. But do you remember this little rap he did with Kid Sensation? I had this tape....and it was awesome.
