Ken Griffey Jr. 599th Homer!

On Saturday, one of the true MLB Players – Ken Griffey Jr. hit his 599th career homer.  It came off Atlanta’s Jair Jurrjens, which made Jurrjenn the 383rd pitcher to give up a homer to Griffey.  Griffey is one homerun from joining the 600-homerun club.   The homerun club membership roll is, *Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Willie Mays and Sammy Sosa.  So far this year homeruns have been very hard for him.  He’s had a long run between homeruns already this year.  I truly can’t wait until he hits his 600th homerun.  I have watched his career since his rookie year in 1989.  Griffey Jr. is one of the last true honest players.
