News Item: Ken Griffey, Jr., retires
Griffey is really the last superstar of my youth to retire (unless you count Jamie Moyer), not to mention the last Springfield softball player from that Simpsons episode to exit the game. I myself once saw Griffey get injured, in person, at a game in Cincinnati- and I'm guessing I'm far from alone among fans in that respect.
