The bronze Ken Griffey Jr. outside Safeco Field looks a little different.
Junior no longer has a bat. Instead, he has a nub of a bat handle, with the remaining part stolen.
The statue was unveiled on April 13 to honor the Mariners’ Hall-of-Famer.
“I’m truly humbled and honored for this,” Griffey said during the ceremony. “I played baseball for one reason and that was just to go out and play because I love the game of baseball, and to have an organization do all these things in the last 18 months has been truly unbelievable and overwhelming.
