The account relates Griffey&#8217;s decision to venture into the baseball business, documenting his time as a scout, coach, and manager along with his accomplishments as a father, raising two other major league ballplayers: Craig, who played briefly for the Seattle Mariners, and future Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr. Capturing the subject&#8217;s time with the Big Red Machine, this record details his days playing alongside Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, and Pete Rose, highlighting the Reds&#39; two consecutive world championships in 1975 and 1976. Finally, the ultimate thrill of Griffey&#8217;s career is featured: playing in the same outfield in 1990 with his son, Ken Griffey Jr., during the game where they hit back-to-back home runs&#8212;the only father-son combination to do so in the history of Major League Baseball. Filled with amusing anecdotes and behind-the-scenes glimpses of what it&#8217;s like when baseball really does run in the family, this is a sports memoir unlike any other.</DIV></DIV>
