$21.99
Ken Griffey Jr. (born George Kenneth Griffey, Jr. on November 21, 1969in Pittsburgh suburb of Donora, Pennsylvania) is a Major League Baseball player. Griffey shares not only the same birthday, but also the same birthplace as Hall of Famer Stan Musial. He is considered to be one of the greatest outfielders in baseball history.
In 1987 Griffey was selected with the first overall pick of that year's amateur draft by the Seattle Mariners. As a big leaguer, he was well on the way to the Rookie of the Year award but was thwarted when he slipped in the shower and broke a bone in his right hand in late July, 1989. While with the Mariners, Junior, as he is often called, established himself as one of baseball's premier players, and during the '90s, Griffey was considered one of the best players of the time. In fact, many consider him to be the "player of the 90s" despite playing in a hitter's park (the Kingdome) and having arguably inferior statistics to the less-likeable Barry Bonds. Other competitors for the title might have been Frank Thomas and, more questionably, Albert Belle. Before injuries cut into his production, he was a top run producer and the best center fielder in the big leagues although Devon White and Jim Edmonds also merit mention. Griffey hit for a high average, batting over .300 for seven of the years of the '90s, and hit with power as well, slugging 422 home runs during the decade.
