In the spirit of Opening Day, I decided to go through my "Sports Box", where I kept all my special sports memorabilia as a kid. I discovered my Sports Illustrated's featuring Griffey, 1989-2001 Mariners team info guides, baseball cards, and ticket stubs. I thought I would share a few of the items with you, as a tribute to Junior and the Mariners.

1991 - Griffey baseball family, Ken Sr, Ken Jr, Craig (minor league M's player)

1995 SI - The famous ALDS win over the Yankees - best Game 5 ever!
Upper Deck Rookie Card
1989 - My first game of Griffey's rookie season
1990 - First father/son game in MLB history - Griffey Sr and Griffey Jr

Last game of 1991 - 83rd win and first winning season for the team.
Here's hoping for a winning season this year too! I wish I was in Seattle to see Opening Day, but guess I'll have to settle for watching our MLB Extra Innings package . Go M's!
