It was great to see that former Seattle Mariner Ken Griffey Jr. has received a Commissioner’s Historic Achievement Award.

Jr. is one of the greatest baseball players of all time. And we here in Seattle had a chance to see him play most his career. How lucky we were.

Grif also did a lot for the kids in the inner city of Seattle. Every year he took a group of kids from Rainier Vista Boys and Girls Club to Disneyland. Plus he bought the club a new van.

He kept Seattle on the baseball map. He did a lot of commercials with his Mariner jersey on etc. Might of fact, hardly any other baseball player was doing commercials. It was just Grif Jr.

So congratulations to Griffey Jr. and his awards. In a few years we will see him walking right into the Baseball Hall Of Fame.   Gordon Curvey
