We say happy birthday to Ken Griffey, perhaps the best player of our generation. He was born in Pennsylvania on this day in 1969.
Ken broke with Seattle in 1989 at age 19. He was awesome in the 1990's winning 3 HR titles and several seasons with 140-plus RBI's.
Injuries caught up with him in Cincinnati and we never saw the offensive numbers that he put up in Seattle.
Griffey retired with 630 HR & 1,836 RBI. He was also an amazing center fielder!
