MIAMI, FL – Cincinnati Reds outfielder Ken Griffey, Jr. celebrated hitting his 600th career home run this week, becoming the sixth player in history and third in the last six years to reach that plateau.
However, the news was not all good for the future Hall of Famer. As he stepped on home plate and met his teammates to share this historic moment, he suffered a catastrophic hamstring injury that will lead to his 600th trip to the disabled list in his twenty-year career.
In the spirit of celebration, SSNN takes a look back at some of Griffey’s more memorable injuries…
A parade is scheduled in Cincinnati to celebrate their hometown hero’s milestone accomplishment. The parade route will wind its way through the city’s medical center, where hundreds of orthopedists, surgeons and physical therapists are expected to attend.
