On Episode 6 of Club Shay Shay, Shannon welcomes in baseball Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr. “The Kid” shares a number of stories from his 22-year professional baseball career, in which he was a 13-time All-Star, 10-time Gold Glove Winner and 1997 American League MVP. We hear about what it was like being teammates with “The Big Unit” Randy Johnson, and his plea to the Mariners front office to trade for Pedro Martinez.

What was your favorite moment in Griffey's Hall of Fame career?
Home runs
Home run back to back with his dad. That was truly a legendary moment
His sneakers lol
The GOAT! I wore my KGs everyday this guy was everything in baseball. They don't show him the proper respect?
Hitting the warehouse
Griffey needs to bring back the swingman shoes with nike again. those were some of the sweetest shoes out there. Griffey is the Jordan of baseball.....
Was just saying to myself I need the original grey Griffey’s with grey mariners Griffey jersey
That’s left hand swing is silk .
My adopted girl ( left handed Latino from Guatemala) first hits at the campground off the tee - Magic
I told all sports buddies , “ swings like Ken Griffey “
FACTS
I've been trying to look up for his shoes online at the footlockers of the world, finish line, Nike ect. Sheesh I need me some Griffeys
Shoe wise yeah hands down bur that's where it ends, dude was nothing more than a stat monster he never made his teams better
That backdrop is INSANE and what makes it so sweet is that it's about being rewarded for playing DEFENSE. Props to Jr, one of the greatest players of his and any generation.
Absolutely..
He was the greatest of his generation. Gwynn,Ichiro and Jeter are all up there, but Griffey was the best, offense AND defense!!
Griffey Jr my favorite player no cheating the game no steroids just pure talent
Griffey was raw and the shoes was dope
@@healthyhabits3406 you already know
If you wore a baseball jersey best believe it was a Mariners Griffey jr
@Houdini 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My All time favourite.
He had the sweetest natural swing in baseball.
His swing was pure honey🍯
Absolutely beautiful
Facts!
yeah i like watching his highlights
yea they said that lol
Ken Griffey Jr had drip on the field, the Nike Air Griffey Max and the backwards hat 💧
Griffey is drip
Junior said that he's 51? Bro looks like that same kid in Seattle. My favorite baseball player of all time. That stance and that swing man!
I know, Shannon Sharpe made the Judgment of that he said he could have gone on 25 years instead of 22. They would have had designated hitter in the National League he would have had a hundred 25 home runs to get Aaron's mark of 755 instead of bonds 762.
Ken Griffey just flexing all those gold gloves in the back is crazy lol
S/o to Unc shay shay getting us right with these podcasts, new legend with every new upload
listen if i had 10 gold gloves i would do every interview in front of my gold glove wall too.
@@choicebarrelscrotes2732 facts!
Shay is gonna be able to talk to a lot of people that may not like Skip. This channel will only get more popular over time.
The only problem I have seen complaints that he's not interviewing white people. I've seen the complaint more than once. I love his guest so far.
@@normajeaneason6983 sorry but that is a silly complaint. All his guests have been entertaining and i don't need to see a white guest for the sake of having someone white
@@19sniper I'm not complaining if you read, just informing
whitlock gonna get jealous as well.
There are a lot of pro athletes that do not like Skip. The only recurring guests who are athletes that they have on the show are Michael Vick and Orlando Scandrick. There is no doubt in my mind that this podcast is going to blow up. So many athletes and celebrities like Shannon.
Unc is about to blow up. He is so respected. I bet LeBron would go to Club Shay Shay before he went on First Take or Undisputed.
BIG FACTS!!!! 💯
I hope so!
If LeBron came on this show it would break the internet
Imagine his numbers if he wouldnt have been plagued with injuries. Best ever imo
Kind of reminds me of shannons brother, cant find someone better in their first 7 years then either of them
Fosho
I tell people that everytime I talk about him
Google or you tube Willie Mays
Greatest 5 tool player imho
Imagine if he was juicing like everyone else at the time lol he’d have shattered the HR record by like year 18
Shoutout to Uncle Shay Shay he has an impressive list of people he has had interviewed already and this is the sixth episode and he has one of my favorite athletes of all time Ken Griffey Jr.. Still has the prettiest swing i have ever seen and one of the best Center Fielders of all time hands down. Keep up the great work Uncle Shay Shay
You can tell he really doesn't talk about his accomplishments. Seems like a dude I could sit and have a drink with
Griff seems like a dude that would be more into listening to you and what's going on, than talk about himself
Imagine his numbers if he wouldnt have been plagued with injuries. Best ever imo
His accomplishments are speaking for themselves...RIGHT BEHIND HIM
I was stoked when I saw Junior as a guest because I haven't seen many interviews with the legend. Sweetest swing ever in the MLB. Thanks Uncle Shay
You see he did one with russel wilson to a few weeks ago
Growing up as a teen in the mid 90’s, he was the one we thought was going to break the all time HR record. His swing was hella smooth and always a humble guy
I seent him in the old yankee stadium
The Kid Ken Griffey Jr! Everyone here in Seattle will always love you!!! ⚾️ 💙
Growing up as a teen in the mid 90’s, he was the one we thought was going to break the all time HR record. His swing was hella smooth and always a humble guy
He would have but injuries got him later in his career.
Facts!
His hamstrings at the end got him, he definitely was on track to do so. I was always more impressed with his glove work he was a walking highlight.
I could listen to these two talk ALL DAY every day. This is that kinda talk when the "grown folk" told the kids to "go play." Now we get to hear it turnt up to the max.
Yaas!! It has been my new thing. I don’t really watch sports (catch a while my hubby watches) but the conversations have been so good
Ken Griffey had the best baseball game of all time. The sound of an outfielder hitting the wall resonates in my head to this day.
Aghhhhhh!!!
great interview.... i know all the 80s babies loved this interview
The GOAT best all around player I ever seen and my all time favorite
He is the true Natural, Jr is a class act. Great person and great ball player. You can see how his dad molded him and gave him the right mind set. Shannon is a great interviewer.
Uncle Shay, this is one of the best interviews I've heard. I was a big fan of Ken Griffey Sr. because the Reds are my favorite team in baseball and Ken Griffey Jr. is my favorite player of all time. He has the sweetest home run swing ever.
Every kid mimicked his stance and swing, it looked so cool.
What was your favorite moment in Griffey's Hall of Fame career?
Shannon getting the best guests 👍🏽
Yes
Griffey a stand up dude , I loved this interview
Unc has been doin his thing wit the podcast it has barely been a month since he started it💪🏾💯
Shannon hasn’t missed yet. Haven’t had one boring interview yet
Unc Shay an boring don’t coexist..it jus don’t
One person that never cheated the game
Mr Griffey is the reason why I played Baseball in HS. Salute to you.
Unc is setting himself up for a great career post-FS1
he has a great personality and he has earned himself a name in the sports world past football. Shannon could do a lot with what he has rn
@@kevinzhu6417 Won't be on TV most likely. Predictions are ESPN will loose half their subscribers in the next 9 years
aqQ
My boy got his mind right, finding all ways to secure the bag not just one. Honestly Shay is a true role model who should inspire people to come
Wow an interview with the Goat! My All time favorite athlete! Class act!
Griffey is the baseball GOAT in my opinion and one of the reasons is he was on the cover and his voice used in the greatest baseball game of all time, Major League Baseball Feat. Ken Griffey Jr. on the N64.
Barry bonds
@@boogieman9107 *
Dont forget the snes game as well.
Shannon thank you for this interview. Griffey one of my all time favorites and very rare do we see this side of him. Club shay shay is starting to become one of my favorites! ⚾️
Uncle Shay with all the top tier Celebs!!! I see you!! My all time favorite Baseball player!!!!
WOW! 10/10 with the interview of one of the GOAT's in sports. Griffey shows everyone that humility is key in life.
I remember begging my mom to go and watch him play at the Kingdome in 1994. What a humble, well spoken man. I wish more pro athletes were like him.
Ken Griffey Jr., a baseball god, us mere mortals are not worthy. Just pure greatness. Same age as me, that time period produced some of the games defining players.
Club Shay Shay got it lit on Tuesdays. Griffey still looks the same.
This was a great interview. Enjoyed the entire episode. Ken Griffey Jr. is an all-time great 💯
The greatest baseball player I ever saw in my lifetime,hence that I was actually able to see play. Offensively and defensively just a all around player.played in a era dominated by steroids,he was the only one u didn’t have to question if he was taken them. and he had the best stance and swing in baseball
When I use to play MLB The Show I always make a Griffey type player with his swing. Salute Griffey Jr. and Sr.
It never occurred to me before: there are MANY poor poor high school pitchers that had to face "Aluminum Bat Griffey".
Frightening.
I love Ken Griffey Jr, he is my all time sports idol. The man was amazing to watch and he defied an era. Griffey was just magnetic. I remember being a Yankee Fan going to Yankee stadium to watch the Mariners play the Yankees, I would wear my Yankee hat with my Griffey Jersey... I had to, he meant that much to me.
Griffey is the 🐐 no debate
My favorite player of all time. Haven’t watched since he left.
The most effortless, smooth and beautiful swing EVER in the game. In an era full of steroid abuse and “sluggers” making their name on the long ball, Griffey could keep up with any of them NATURAL. Out of all his accomplishments, and their are many, grif’s most amazing achievement imo is that in a game full of cheaters he was able to keep up and still rise above all of them and be the best in the game. Dear lord imagine the numbers Griffey would put up if he was on ped’s.... but he is class and did it on his own merits
Probably would of taken some of that sweet swing away actually if he got all bulked up. He just had the eye and perfect timing. And made it look cooler tjen anyone haha
personally I think A-Rod had the best swing every.
@@jokatech stop I would say Robinson Cano's or will Clark's swing is better than A-rods
As a kid who was 10 in 95’ thank you Jr for everything.
Ken Griffey jr is lowkey funny asf
“Unc showing out keep em coming”
I love Griffey more than ever now. What a family!
Unc shay shay podcast is growing by the day 💯
Jr was so amazing to watch play in his prime
He is a Cincy legend and we love him out of the 513. Like him i was born somewhere else, but i was raised in cincy and proud of it.
Ken Griffey Jr. is the goat of baseball. The 8 people that disliked are loser Yankees fans
Facts!!!!
P
I'm a yankess fan and Griffey is one of my all time favorites. With out injuries, his numbers are beyond ridiculous.
Unfortunately there are Cowboys' fans the same way......I'll apologize for them now.....SORRY everyone!!
He had the sweetest natural swing in baseball.
Ken Griffey Jr is a Legend!
How can you not love KG jr? He's so transparent, genuine, funny, kind, respectful & a man of integrity
Thanks Shannon & Ken ! Wonderful interview, Keep 'em coming !
Unks keep doing what U doing because U doing well, we got nothing but love 4 U unks. Keep on keeping on...
I've always like Ken Griffen Jr, but with this interview I get to see him in a different light, which makes me like him more!!!
UNCLE SHAY, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THIS INTERVIEW. KEN GRIFFEY JR. WAS ALWAYS MY FAVORITE MLB PLAYER GROWING UP. THIS INTERVIEW HELPED ME APPRECIATE MY LIFE AND SAW WHO I WAS THROUGH KEN'S EXPLANATION ON HIS TALENTS AND WHO HE WAS AS A PERSON. I FELT THE SAME WHERE GOD HAS BLESSED ME TO BE A PERSON TO APPRECIATE WHAT GOD HAS CREATED ME TO BE. NEVER CHEAT YOURSELF AND LIFE THAT GOD HAS BLESSED YOU WITH, HE CREATED A JOURNEY FOR YOU TO GROW INTO A LIGHT THAT WILL NEVER DIM. THANK YOU FOR THE GEMS AND SPIRIT THAT YOU AND KEN GRIFFEY HAVE INSPIRE ALOT OF PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY MYSELF. 🙏🙏
Loved seeing Griffey lift the 12th Man Flag in the C-Link!! Go Hawks baby!!
Griffey jr is my favorite athlete of all time. As a left handed person he was the first left handed athlete that I saw in the 90's. Once I saw him swing i instantly changed my batting style to mimic his and it instantly started working.
My all-time favorite Baseball player. Loved the Sport, played 100% every game, all heart. And it always showed. I'd probably be flabbergasted if I met him.
The best baseball player ever never complain never got a ring that he deserved but he out worked everybody on the field and played his whole career Clean offense of monster and a great defensive player The goat Hall of Fame with one of the best baseball swings ever
This was a great interview heard the audio on podcast yesterday...nice to get a chance to see the video...especially those silver sluggers he said he couldn’t fit in the house 😂 😂...
Thank you Club Shay Shay foe this interview. Ken Griffey Jr is one of the reasons that I love baseball and this interview truly shows how humble and down to earth he is.
The man talks about his family in a way, thats rarely unheard of these days.
From His Grand Mothers living directly across from each other, to playing with Dad, to his Own children.
Wow what a great conversation!!!!!!
I’ve been a fan of The Kid since 1990 and a fan of Uncle Shay for about the last few years. This is the most rewarding and genuine interview I have ever watched. It literally brought me to tears seeing my favorite athlete of all time being so real and giving us snippets of his life like this.
Well done Shay Shay and thank you for making this happen. I’m gonna keep watching your stuff.
Thank you Griffey Jr for still bringing a smile to my face some 30 years since I first (and forever after) became enamored but your skill, style, and all-time greatness.
Thank you deeply for this interview. I’m sharing it with all my friends.
They don’t make them like Griffey no more!!! Wow. So much more respect for him after watching this podcast
My G O A T 💯
Thanks so much for this interview. The GOAT!
Unk of Course ima support❗Wish u the best, Great Podcast❗💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿🤴🏿
My favorite baseball player As a kid growing up in North Ohio during the Indians 90s runs.
Great interview, Griffey is a great gentlemen, it was an honor to watch him play
If LeBron doesn't contact this show to be on it, it'll be unreal and disappointing to s.sharpe fans and his loyalty towards LeBron
The best chance he’s got is some time in the offseason probably. So far it seems like the people he talks to know him and already had a personal connection (until just recently with Kamara but even then he was put on by a mutual friend)
Trust me, LeBron is coming, it’ll be when it’s least expected.
Growing up in cincy around the time Jr was in high school he was the talk of the city.. Great interview unc
Was and still is one of my favorite people on earth.
Another great interview 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 and I need a size 8 in women’s/6 in kids lol
Love this!!!! I honestly think Shannon has found his niche. Great questions, great guests. Proud of the King 👑
01:24:25 Wisdom to live by no matter your disposition. I have been a fan of Griffey since the #1 Upper Deck days and this is a gem of an interview
Now this was an Interview we all been wanting to see thanks Shay 🔥
What a freaking GREAT interview. Did not expect myself to sit here and watch the whole thing. Dope job on Shannon's part
Great interview Unc. Keep that heat coming
Who gave this interview a thumbs down?
This was a great interview!
One of my favorite interviews EVER in life. By two of my FAVORITE players in their respective sports 💪🏿💯
I enjoyed this episode. Excellent job Unc!
Griffey is my favorite player. I remember seeing him play when he was with the Red's and saw him play in Atlanta. I hated when he got hurt, and the strike year. If it wasn't for that, I think he could have easily become the home run leader.
Love this Shay Shay!!! Very inspiring! 👊🏿
This is THE BEST episode this far. Epic interview with with Ken Griffey Jr. Legendary career, ultra humble man.
This is major!
GREAT INTERVIEW ! LOVED IT!
One of the greatest of all time. Loved the interview. Very down to earth.
Cincinnati right here in the house. We're the same age. Watched his Dad as a kid , then watched his career. Jr. Is as talented an all around baseball player as has EVER lived. Unbelievable talent. Thanks Shay,. Great interview. Shay you really doin it sir .
Thank you for doing this with JR. He is and always will be my favorite baseball player to ever live. I wish i could have gotten to watch him play live but i never missed a game on tv.
He had a what “if” career. What if he wasn’t plagued by that hamstring for several years. Could have been the all time home run leader.
FACTS!
The only regret is he didn't play on better teams. Would have loved to watch him more often in October.
He had a Hall of Fame career that could have been the best ever. It isn't like he was a guy who missed his shot.
Great great interview. Thanks 👍🏽
Man, I’m glad I watched this. I didn’t know all this about Griffey. Excellent interview.
The legend. My all time favorite baseball player. The reason i played the game. Griffey!!
I’m a Texas rangers fan and I can’t tell you how scared I was every time this guy came to the plate. What a legend and a cool guy too. I feel privileged to have watched him play.
Man UNC I love you my guy.. You’re truly a gem ! Love your work ..
