The Sweetest Swing Has Decided To Walk Away

Former Seattle Mariners and Cincinnati Reds outfielder Ken Griffy Jr. has decided to call it a career at the age of 40. Griffey played 22 MLB seasons, mostly with the Mariners. He was the 1997 AL MVP and finished his career with 630 homeruns. But the thing that most people will remember about Griffey is his swing. He has been dubbed to have the sweetest swing ever in baseball. He was always a fan favorite as well as a great club house guy. Griffey was on pace to break the all-time homerun record but injury plagued seasons in Cincinnati never gave him the chance. Griffey will be a first ballot hall of famer.
