Over the course of his Hall of Fame career, Ken Griffey Jr. hit .284/.370/.538 with 630 homers, while playing incredible defense. Of his 22 years, 13 were spent with the Seattle Mariners, where he began his career playing alongside his father. “The Kid” went on to become a Mariners legend, and he’ll now have a physical presence at their ballpark for years to come:
