Bat of Ken Griffey Jr. Statue Stolen, Recovered

This past April, the Seattle Mariners unveiled a statue dedicated to franchise legend and all-time great slugger Ken Griffey Jr. outside Safeco Field.

Somebody recently ran off with an important piece of the fixture. 

Per Chris Daniels of King 5 News, a thief stole a large section of the bat held by Griffey's likeness. However, it seems the story has a happy ending, although Daniels did ask an important question while offering an update on the situation: 

The guilty party should apologize to The Kid in person.
