griffey is the greatest most purest homerun hitter ever. hes got the greatest swing of all time

I hope the Mariners win this year. Griffey deserves a world series

classic commercial. Jr. would have easily been the home run king, and even the best player ever had he not been injured so many times late in his career. A perennial All-Star selection and Gold Glover, Ken Griffey Jr. will no doubt be a first ballot Hall of Famer. Jr. was my favorite player ever, and I'm sad to see him go, but ever has to retire someday.

i am so happy to see junior come home go mariners

I loved this commercial! I can't believe someone found it.

Thats our boy! Go Griff!

I'm a braves fan and have always been a fan of Jr in the 90's when he started his career in a mariners uniform. I was a little bummed out at first that Jr decided to sign with the Mariners instead of the braves, but i'm glad that he did. Cuz when I see Jr I see a mariner. It would be weird seeing him in any uniform other then the mariners.

I'm not a Mariners fan. Heck, I'm not even a big baseball fan, but I am glad to see that Junior is back in Seattle where it all started.

if you had a chance to watch this guy play through 1990 to 2000 you got the chance to see one hell of a baseball player. maybe the best to ever step on the field. i think everybody knows if he would have stayed healthy he would have been the guy on top of the HR charts. i know who i am going to tell my kids about and its barry bonds.

my oh my! hahaha griffeys got the swaggg

man he was every young baseball fans idol....and i was a yankee fan.

Right fielder's just chillaxin lol

Wow that brings me back..who remembers the "My Oh My! That Ball is BELTED..." god I love it. Mid 90's Team was insane!

gotta love griffey... an all-time great player and person

also be relieved that you spent time with yours. Some people don't and I am lucky to continue to spend time with mine

The only time I got to see JR in person was at the Doc Gooden No hitter at Yankee Stadium as a kid

hes the cleanest modern day hitter no doubt

@newhardy101fyi I had the opportunity to meet Griffey as well and he was the nicest guy. He was with his family so me and my buddy didn't want to bother him too much but he said there and talked to us for 15 minutes or so. That was at NBA city at Universal Studios in Florida. Definately made my vacation!

that is a great memory man. I hope you guys had a great relationship

congrats on 600 jr

its all good now. we got our Sounders

hall of fame without a doubt

Seattle will have an exciting outfield with Jr & Ichiro.

Ah, the heyday of Mariner's baseball... Cool seeing all the Seattle icons in that commercial btw.

If it wasn't for injuries Griffey would have well over 700 homeruns and over 3000 hits with probably atleast 2 more gold gloves, he currently has 10. Making him my favorite player and in my opinion one of the best of all time, atleast top 10 maybe top 5.

@fasteddie36 it was fun to watch games there! jr was the best hitter / player of our time, without a doubt, and there is no way he did steroids. he was a natural.

Without his injuries, its safe to say that Ken would of been at the top of the leader boards for home runs

how can you not like ken griffey jr?

Griffey truly did it without steroids and he should be considered the greatest since the Babe. The end. He's money when playing for Seattle.

I remember being at a Cincinnati's game, back in 2000. At that time, Griffey had just went to Cincinnati and they were facing his old team, the Mariners. Dad and I were sitting out in right field, two rows from the wall. Griffey was doing horrible that day... I think he only got on base one time. Well, when the Mariners were up at bat, and Griffey was out in right field, my dad yelled, "Griffey, you suck." He turned around and shook his junk at my dad.

Ken Griffey Jr now has 620 Career Home Runs

G.O.A.T!

he definitely does deserve it.. imagine had he not been injured for those seasons we wouldn't be talking about Bonds it would be all about Griffey and his pursuit of possibly 800

Welcome Home Junior!! Seattle M's 2009!!

That's crazy!! I've been to all those places.. The Elephant Car Was, Dick's (after a night of drinking, best burgers!!) , Pike's Market of course. I want to move back to Seattle

sweetest swing in baseball

this guy can hit the ball into a different time of day?!?!1

and still is! :D

Amazing how his 600 homer career was largely a what if....? They talk about Trout like that but he's not even to 400 home runs....Griffey really battled for years and still put up numbers

Welcome home!!!

"Got out in front of that one." lmao

griffey was the shit back then

Grifey's a beast :D

@lagunatom this is the sentiment of every kid growing up in the 90's

u got tht right

1st ballot hall of famer!!

i guess this guy is the only clean home run hitter in the whole mlb. HOF 4 sure

Avg .284, Hr 630, RBI 1836, Hits, 2781, 13x all star, 10x gold glove award winner, 7x silver slugger winner. First Ballot HOF, KEN GRIFFEY JR.

they need to bring those griffeys back, that dude is gonna make a fortune off those balls lol

かっこよすぎる

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's baaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!

This guy was the poster you had on the wall growing up as a kid. He was the guy you tried to copy the swing of in the mirror while playing Little League. Best damn player of a decade, WITHOUT being tagged with drug accusations.

sweet

just met him today at the a's game

lol this is definatly how griffey was in the kingdome, wish we still had the old him and the kingdome but hey it is worth every penny the mariners are paying him.

@ChrisFlipsAlot Magic Johnson was retired when he played in the NBA All Star game, and it was the most memorable all star game in NBA history.

Come back to Seattle Griffey

haha this is so cute

thanks for the support. You know whats funny is the mets are my favorite NL team. Sort of weird how that works out.

I Wish Griffey Jr. Would Have Been With The Reds In HIs Younger Years When He was a 30 homer and 100 RBI guy

hey Junior!

Hit it here Jr!

That's my house at the end

i was his supplier back in the day.

Baseball would die for me if I ever found out he did steroids. Him and Cal Ripken meant so much to me growing up...

Griffey is probably the most talented player ever to step on a baseball field, but imagine what his career would have been like if he'd trained and conditioned properly instead of just relying on his innate ability. He would have hit 900 home runs if he had taken training seriously. Certainly his broken wrist was a freak accident, but most of his other injuries could have been prevented. Also, this is a nike ad... Junior would have been the best even if he played shoeless.

Best looking swing of all time. Too bad he's had health problems in his 30's. He could have been the greatest ever. Damn turf

wish he coulda been the HR king

600 baaaaaaaaaaby

best player in modern times. No steroids, Could you imagine his stats if he did use the juice.

@timmyj114 was a 40+ 100+ with a glove. some people are clueless on how good players are and were

they were at my door step earlier.

Vote For Griffey!!! I'm voting for Griffey for the all star game, as well as a write in for the home run derby. Go to MLB.com and vote for Griffey in the all star game and home run derby. You can vote 25 times for each from each e-mail address you have. I'm voting hundreds, if not thousands of times, but he needs more. Lets see Griffey one more time.

@westsidenasfan you mean like how they are now? im pissed too, i still watch em though

@fendertender1 absolutely, no doubt about it. I think he should have just stayed in Seattle his entire career, and stayed away from the NL and the Reds. Imagine what could have been if the Mariners held on to Griffey, A-rod, got Ichiro and also had guys like Edgar Martinez, Jay Buhner, Randy Johnson......probably would have won a world series in the early 2000's.

Epic410 he pretty much left cause of his family and kid

@Aceman923 amen. if we had an everyday healthy Junior, plus a decent pitching staff, we woulda been division contenders through out the 2000's other than battling Pittsburgh for last place every year.

Anyone know where i can find the clip of griffey scoring in game 5 of the 1995 ALDS?

he got a lot of at bats that game

Yeah, loading your hands will throw your whole swing off. Swinging is more about the torque and drive of your body, your hands just go with the flow.

Hell yea. Go Griffey!!! Wait What? nvm.. but yea.. go griffey!

you got it exactly on the dot if he didnt have those bad injury proned seasons he would have pass bonds and honestly id rather have griffy as home run king then bonds

Which pixel is Griffey in?

if he never got hurt, griffey would have like 850 hrs right now

1st ballot HOF!!!

Brian Setzer on the guitar?

So why at 58 seconds does it show the Kingdome?

He should have stayed in Seattle!

that was a funny one, and thank god he got out og cincinnatte, he would have never really got anywhaere there, he hasnt won a world series ring yet has he, well he has a chance now, i hope he gets one

what Griffey shoes are these??????? I was young when i had these. Hope they relese these Griffey shoes. Hit me up if anyone knows.

not to mention if we do cut griffey...who the fuck is gonna replace him?? some rookie who struggles to hit .200. i think we have enough of those. griffey is the only bat M's fans get excited for anyway! he might not be hitting HR's, but his presence alone is worth the 1mil they're paying him

A-Roid or A-Fraud I like them both

@seattlehawkins ever hear of a typo, grammar cop?

it sucks because i think he would of gotten the record if he hadnt gotten hurt. he's natural, and it sucks what happened.

like Shoeless Jackson!

looks like he just made a 13th

@BIGSKYGAMBLER i have to of them and one is a misprint

@Fable206 if he wasnt injured he PROBABLY wouldve hit more Home runs then Hank Aaron, dont you think?

coulda, shoulda, woulda won the triple crown if he stayed healthy.

Sorry, to here that.

For the love of God, man! Put the sign away!
