This is what happens if you never take steroids; you retire at a normal age.

See you in Cooperstown soon, Ken.

He poisoned the clubhouse in Cincinnati. Didn't really want to be there once he got there.

Odd, the original title seems to spell “Griffey” correctly.

Why do you think that is?

Back in his heyday, it would have been hard to imagine his retirement was going to be as low-key as this. He was on his way to being one of the true greats of the game.

I watched what was apparently his last at-bat Monday night against the Twins. He pinch hit in the bottom of the ninth and hit into a fielder’s choice. Then they sent in a pinch runner and he went to the dugout looking kind of dejected.

They lost the game and he didn’t appear at all last night.
