Ken Griffey Jr. hits 2500 in MLB

Ken Griffey Jr. became only the 84th player in MLB history to reach 2500 hits as he struck a first inning single against the Braves.

He was up against Atlanta’s John Smoltz with two outs in a scoreless game but Griffey got a defensive shift playing for him to pull. However, he went to the opposite field and hit a easy base shot on the ground into the left field which extended his hitting streak for four games.

Ken Griffey has been an All Star 13 times and he got a career home run No. 587 on Monday night to move past Frank Robinson for sixth place on the all-time list.

Who do you think will be the next MLB player to hit 2500?
