LEWJ Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I did a search and it doesn't seem like this has been discussed yet. But Ken Griffey Jr. has switched numbers from from #30 to #3.Discuss | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpnation Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 He changed to #3 to honor of his three children. And I believe at least one of the kids wears #3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumway Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I saw a jersey the other week in the store with #3, and I thought maybe it was a WBC jersey or something. Makes sense now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Swamp Yankee Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 All of his kids wear #3 for their little league teams or something, so he wanted to match them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankj1 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Actually I heard that he changed his number due to the WBC. He wore #33 on the Reds in honor of his father, but when he played on team USA his father was a coach. On team USA his father wore the number 33 so Junior switched to number 3 for the classic, he decided to keep it when the season started.

The Swamp Yankee Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 No. He wore #3 because all of his kids wear #3 for their teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
