Ken Griffey Jr. moved one step closer this afternoon to becoming the 5th player, the 4th legitimately, to reach 600 home runs. Junior hit a 1st inning, 2-run shot off of the Braves' Jair Jurrjens.
It bothered me hearing Sammy Sosa and Barry Bonds name mentioned when they talked about 600 homeruns. A guy like Griffey who is not a cheater is such a better player than those two.
It is a shame they tainted the game. Actually it really ticks me off.
AKA Mantlemurcer (MM). I'm Married to Mrs. MM, who is also my editor/proofreader and biggest fan. I became a Yankees fan in the late 1960's and attended my 1st game at Yankee Stadium in 1970. I hope to bring you a unique perspective about the Yankees, past, present, and future.

Can't wait until A-Rod passes them all!
