Blasts a 3-1 pitch in the first inning. Congratulations Junior, couldn't happen to a better guy. First guy to reach 600 in about 30 years that didn't cheat most of his way there.
great for him...after his injuries he has seemed to be forgotten, but i think he was probably the greatest talent in the mlb in my lifetime. Of all the guys who's had the chance to pass Aaron I had hoped it would be him.
i'm so pissed i wasn't there. ...i was at the mall instead.

I think pre steroids Bonds was better....but that's just me. Barry in the Kinddome would have been scary.

But Griffey was a far better defender. Bonds couldn't even throw out Sid Bream.

the hell are you talking about, sid had some wheels
griffey is definitely one of the good guys in the game, and i wish he didnt go through all his injurys, he shoulda really been the one to pass up hank, i dont think anyone woulda had a problem with that. congrats on 600, that is still HUGE
