We dug into the archives to stitch together this #minimovie, featuring rare footage, cinematic camera shots and interviews with Griffey's father, Ken Sr., and his peers including Alex Rodriguez, Jay Buhner and a host of modern baseball stars that describe how much Griffey influenced their own paths in the game.
