Congrats Griffey

Congratulations to Ken Griffey Jr. for his 600 home run yesterday.

He's only the fourth non steroid player to achieve this benchmark.

Hank Aaron 755
Babe Ruth 714
Willie Mays 660
Ken Griffey Jr. 600

For the record, I was not a fan in favor of the Red's signing of Griffey. Not because I objected to Griffey's skills but because the Red's don't have the available money to lock up into one player (see also Adam Dunn).

None the less, the guy was a stud from the first day he took the field and this achievement puts him among the leagues greats.

Nice job Grif.
