In other baseball news, MLB Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr had the following to say about Seattle Mariners rookie Jarred Kelenic and is slow start to the season:

“Relax,” Griffey responded. “The one thing is, when you’re young – and we’ve all been there – you’re trying to hit the three-run home run with nobody on instead of just taking what they give you. I was no different. It’s just one of those things (where) when you get called up, you don’t want to go back down, and so you’re trying everything and sometimes you get out of your comfort zone. You start doing things you don’t normally do. Just relax and enjoy the moment.”
