Ken Griffey, Jr. May Not Return In 2010

Former Red Ken Griffey Jr. says he’s not sure if he’ll return for another year.

Mariners fans gave the Cincinnati native a standing ovation Sunday after their final game of the season.

The fans also cheered “One More Year,” asking Griffey to return to Seattle for another season in 2010. At the end of the game, he was carried off the field by his teammates.

The Mariners team Web site reports that Griffey is headed back to Florida to talk to his family. Griffey will be eligible for free agency next month.

Griffey’s last game with the team he started his Hall of Fame career with ended with a 4-3 over the Texas Rangers.

Ichiro’s run rivals Wee Willie’s

If Seattle’s Ichiro Suzuki is really one of baseball’s best-kept secrets, what about Wee Willie Keeler? As Ichiro becomes the first Major Leaguer to have nine consecutive seasons with 200 or more hits, he’s becoming a household name. At least among baseball fans.

It’s Keeler’s record achieved from 1894 through 1901 that Ichiro will surpass. At last glance Ichiro needed just four hits to reach 200 for the season. Wonder what the coverage was like when Keeler set the record? More about him later.

If Ichiro, 35, played most anywhere but Seattle, I’m certain he’d be in the news constantly. This may be unfair, but I believe many of his amazing feats since arriving from Japan in 2001 have almost gone unnoticed. Maybe not unnoticed, but certainly not given the importance they deserve.
