CINCINNATI—Although Ken Griffey Jr. had nearly recovered from a broken hand sustained while playing with his children in December, his rehabilitation came to a sudden halt yesterday when a gentle 2 mph breeze wafted across his leg, shattering his femur in three places. "I knew it was broken right when that breeze hit me," said Griffey, who was walking from his sports therapist's office to his car in order to drive to his daughter's piano recital at the time of the injury. "These things just happen. If I would have known a breeze like that was coming, I never would have left the house." Reds manager Jerry Narron has stated that, upon Griffey's return to the Reds, he will be fitted with a personalized protective bubble to be worn for the remainder of the season.

Funny story...a buddy of mine was telling me he got in to an argument a couple of years ago with a friend of his who is a Mariner fan and loves Griffey to this day. He swore up and down down that Griffey was not injury prone..he was just unlucky. What kind of idiot...oh wait...nevermind. It's a true story and it made me laugh so I thought I'd share.
