Ken Griffey JR Ties Sammy Sosa on HR List; Soxs Destroy M's

Its about time! Right? Griffey finally connected with the wood and went yard to tie Sammy Sosa on the all time home run record. Who did he do it against? It had to be his first pro team, the Seattle Mariners. 

"It's weird," Griffey said. "I've watched Sammy throughout the years. Tying him, it's OK, I guess."

"I don't really worry about that," he said. "Everybody else does. I'm more concerned about getting hits and getting on base. You get hits and home runs happen. But it is good to get the first one at home."

Doesn't sound like Griffey is too excited about moving up the list to 5th with Sosa. Talk about laying the wood against the M's though. If you missed the game click here to get the game recap from ESPN.com
