Griffey Returns
Ken Griffey, Jr. started the year slowly, hitting just one home run in the month of April. But he's hot in May delivering home run number six on the month. He's tied with Jack Cust for the most in the majors for the month. Unfortunately, the Dodgers offense took advantage of the Red bullpen to score five runs in the eighth, breaking a 5-5 tie to take the game 10-5.
With home runs by Griffey and Kent, the game contributes $20 to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. With the afternoon games over, a total of 23 home runs from those contests means $230 from Baseball Musings is going to breast cancer research. We'll how many the Tigers and Twins add to that.
