I’m normally lamenting about how I wish I could’ve seen the greatest of the greats like Musial, Cobb, Gibson, Mays, etc play the wonderful game of baseball.
Fortunately, I DID get to see one of the greatest of the greats when “The Kid” stepped on the field. An honor to watch Ken Griffey Jr. play ball. I think he was definitely the most iconic baseball player (2nd to only Jordan across ALL sports) for people of my generation.
