In 1992, I recall reading a Sports Illustrated article that suggested Ken Griffey, Jr would be the most likely candidate to hit more Home Runs than Hank Aaron (755).
Over time, that prediction has not been reached due to injuries, but yesterday he joined Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Willie Mays, and Sammy Sosa as the only players ever to hit at least 600 Home Runs. Watch #600!
He has been one of my favorite players (along with Greg Maddux, Roger Clemens, and Derek Jeter) over the last 20 years.
