Griffery Homers, 400th as Mariner; Sets Record 
Posted on April 15, 2009 at 11:45 PM.
Ken Griffey Jr. homered tonight on a 2-1 fastball, off of Jered Weaver, his 400th homerun in his career in a Mariners uniform.

His first homerun at Safeco Field in his second stint with the Mariners, also made Griffey the 1st player in major league history to hit 400 homeruns with one team and 200 homeruns with another.

Congrats to the Kid.

Beyond this, Ichiro hit his 3rd grand slam of his career, in his first game of the season.

The Mariners picked up their 2nd win of the year versus the Angels, after having just 4 wins in 19 games last season.

Fun Fact: The Angels have now spent 9 days out of 1st place in 2009, after being out of 1st for only 8 days for all of 2008.

Going to sleep in first is a good feeling.
