Griffey Inducted Into Mariners Hall of Fame

By April Whitzman, @AlleyCat17

Ken Griffey Jr. was inducted into the Seattle Mariners Hall of Fame on Saturday.

Junior. The Kid. The Natural. He defined greatness. With a truly beautiful swing that produced 630 career homers, it's little wonder that he is responsible for countless people, including myself, taking up a passion for baseball.

Now that he is being suitably honored in Seattle, Cooperstown is not far off! Congratulations and #ThanksJr!
