Tee-hee! Junior dons one batting glove to honor Michael Jackson - Big Leagu... - MLB - Yahoo! Sports

As Mariners slugger Ken Griffey Jr.(notes) strolled to the plate for his first at-bat Tuesday night, the sound system at Safeco Field grooved to Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean."

Griffey's apparent tribute to the King of Pop, who was memorialized Tuesday, extended beyond the sonic. Close inspection of Griff Jr.'s grip on the bat showed a bare left hand and a white batting glove worn on his right.
Quite simply we still own the Canadians when it comes to honoring someone, or anything not named hockey for that matter. In reference to the CFL's celebration of playing dead after a TD.
