24th Anniversary of Back-to-Back Griffey Family Home Runs

History.

24 years ago today, Ken Griffey and Ken Griffey Jr. made history by hitting back-to-back home runs. The Griffey tandem became the first father-son duo to hit home runs in the same game, let alone back to back.

It's fitting that the Griffey anniversary is the day after Bruce Bochy managed his son's MLB debut.
