Sad, but so true.
To be fair, pitcher-hitter hobby disparity aside, Johnson was a late blooming 25 year old still trying to find himself in ‘89…and was a solid 4 years away from resembling anything like the Big Unit.
Meanwhile, Griffey hit the ground running as a teenager the same year and never looked back.
Both eventually became titans at their position, but the hobby loves the long ball. That much cannot be argued.
