Ken Griffey Jr. will be back T-Mobile Park in an official working capacity outside of his responsibilities as an ambassador for the Mariners organization.
The Mariners’ first member in the baseball Hall of Fame will be a part of ESPN’s Monday Night Baseball telecast as a guest analyst in Monday’s opener of a three-game series with the Yankees.
Griffey will join play-by-play commenter Dave Flemming and his close friend Eduardo Perez, who will serve as an analyst. Griffey and Perez became friends when their fathers Ken Sr. and Tony Perez played for the Cincinnati Reds during the Big Red Machine era.
