Product Description

Ken Griffey Jr., son of former pro ballplayer Ken Griffey Sr., has baseball in his blood. From his early years hanging out at Yankee Stadium with his father through his high school days as a baseball star, Ken Jr. was destined to bring greatness to whatever team he played for. He fulfilled his destiny by helping shape his former team, the Seattle Mariners, into division champs. In 2000, Griffey took his legendary skills and famous smile to the Cincinnati Reds to try to win a World Series with his hometown team.

5.0 out of 5 stars Big Ken Griffy Jr, Sep 18 2001
By A Customer
I think this book is a good one because it's talking about
how Ken Griffy Jr. played baseball. His old teamates Alex Rodriguez, Edgar Martinez and Tino Martinez really wanted him to stay in Seattle.
Now he's meeting new teammates like Barry Larkin,Sean Casy,
and Pokey Resse. He's still getting in the playoffs.His father
wanted him in Cincinati. Ken said the Yankees are so easy to beat. He still misses the Mariners.

5.0 out of 5 stars If You Like a Leftey, Nov 15 2000
By A Customer
This book is a good one to read if you like to read about the Seattle Mariners. They list Randy Johnson, Alex Rodriguez, Edgar Martinez and how they got their victory and got into the playoffs. It talks about when Ken Griffey, Jr. was a kid and how he grew up with his father, who played for the Cincinnati Reds. He practiced with his dad sometimes in Yankee Stadium, until his dad couldn't strike him out anymore. It says who he got married to, his likes, his dislikes. All in all, I rate this a 5 star book.

5.0 out of 5 stars An exciting and fabulous book!, Oct 4 1999
By A Customer
On a 1 to 10 scale I would give this book a 10 because it is a funny, family sports book. Ken Griffey Jr.'s dream was to play in the major Leagues like his father, and he achieved it.
