He’s my GOAT. People can feel however they want to about that lol.
Before we even really talked about launch angle!!! To the moon!!!
If you grew up in the 90’s, virtually guaranteed you tried to emulate his swing & Jordan’s tongue out dunk.
Powerful. Graceful. Smooth. No wasted movement. Griffey Jr.’s swing is truly a work of art.
I was at the 99 HRD. That was the day he became my first favorite player that wasn’t on the Sox. Guy was absolutely fucking incredible.
It’s like Fred Couples’ golf swing, effortless and beautiful form.
Remember my coach getting mad at me for trying to swing like Griff. He would say “bend your knees” , I would ignore him and strike out lol.
Ted Williams would like a word.
My favorite player of all time that played for a team that I didn’t root for. As a 90s kid there was nobody more synonymous with baseball at that time that Ken Griffey Jr.
It looks cooler when he drops the bat
Should be the logo.
It was Junior for sure. But Will Clark was sneaky great.
sure
why are left handed swings “pretty” while right handed never is
Honorable Mention to Strawberry. I always thought his swing was pretty pure
I still think Gary Sheffield was the most feared swing
Just made hitting absolute bombs look so easy. It’s not.
strawberry’s was the swing that does it for me
Back when the HRD was fun & exciting!!!
Why did that swing bring a smile to my face? 90’s nostalgia hits HARD
That swing is just so fluid. Jr’s mechanics were so good that he made it look so effortless that anyone could do it easily.
