Record: no walk in the ballpark
A day before the All-Star game, Ken Griffey Jr. was talking about why Roger Maris' home-run record will be so hard to break.
By Ben Walker
The Associated Press
Griffey plays 11 more games at the Kingdome, a good park for hitters but not necessarily a big advantage. Of his career-high 50 home runs this season, 26 have come on the road.
"If they don't pitch to you, you can't do it," he said in July at Jacobs Field.
LOVE, The Actives
Case in point: On Monday night, in his first game after reaching 50 home runs, Griffey drew a four-pitch walk in the first inning at Kansas City, drawing boos from the crowd at Kauffman Stadium.
Boy, did he hit that one right on the nose.
"You know, we do the same to their players as they do to me," he said. "With first base open, the big RBI guy comes up, he's going to first base. Those things happen."
But what about breaking Maris' mark of 61set in 1961? Will that happen this year?
Griffey, who had 18 games left going into last night's date in Kansas City, faces a tough task.
Griffey, however, was not complaining.
Whether Griffey thinks he can reach Maris is a mystery. He tries to duck questions pertaining to the home run chase and instead prefers to focus on the Mariners' pursuit of the AL West title and their first World Series appearance.
He already has homered six times this month, and it would take 18 home runs in September to pass Maris. Only once in baseball history has a player hit 18 homers
in any month
— Rudy York
did it for
Detroit in
August 1937.
Griffee's job is
not getting any
easier, either.
Tonight at the Kingdome, he will face Tigers left-hander Justin Thompson, who has faced Griffey six times this season and struck him out every time.
"I can feel more adrenaline rushing through my body," Thompson said. "It is big to get a guy like that
Pitching to Griffey gets Thompson juiced up.
"The only thing I want is to be holding that World Series trophy," he said.
Jordan will rebound into sportswear
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Michael Jordan already has his own basketball shoe. Now he is getting an entire sportswear line.
In a move he says will give him a new career when he is done playing for the Chicago Bulls, Jordan will run the line of athletic shoes and clothing.
The enterprise, which will bear his name, will be produced by Nike. The company long has been affiliated with Jordan and
manufactures the highly successful Air Jordan shoe.
"I have been involved in the design of everything I have worked with from Nike since we began our relationship in 1984." Jordan said at a news conference yesterday at New York's NikeTown. "The launch of the Jordan brand is simply an extension of that process."
The Jordan brand will include athlete endorsers already under contract with Nike,
including Eddie Jones of the Los Angeles Lakers, Vin Baker and Ray Allen of the Milwaukee Bucks, Michael Finley of the Dallas Mavericks and Derek Anderson of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Jordan brand will be worn by college teams — Cincinnati, St. John's and North Carolina A&T.
Jordan said earlier that the new venture would keep him involved with basketball when he retired, although no
immediate farewell was planned.
"I don't think so," he said when asked whether this season with the Bulls would be his last. "I think we are going to win again and go for seven."
Jordan, who has led the Bulls to five NBA championships in the 1990s, said a sixth title was the most important thing now.
"My connection to the game doesn't always have to be coaching or broadcasting," Jordan said.
Jordan: Gets his own line of shoes and athletic wear.
