Almost twenty years since his last appearance in a baseball video game, Ken Griffey Jr. returns to the digital diamond as the cover athlete of MLB The Show 17. We’ll have more details on the cover athlete who will be featured on the Canadian version of the Standard Edition soon.

Destined for greatness, no player entered the Big League with more hype than the first pick of the 1987 MLB draft, and no player entered baseball’s Hall of Fame with a higher percentage of the vote than “The Natural.” A legend both on and off the field, “The Kid” inspired a generation of baseball fans with electric play, a contagious smile, enviable flair, and a swing that’s been imitated but never duplicated for almost three decades.

Thanks to baseball video games, millions of people around the world have become enamored with America’s Pastime. Perhaps nobody will ever be able to re-create Griffey’s signature swing in real life, but we can’t wait to introduce Junior as a playable living legend in The Show 17.

Pre-order now and be ready for action. The Show 17 launches March 28, 2017!

When you pre-order, you will receive 10 bonus Standard Packs and a Ken Griffey Jr. Card for The Show 17 when you pick-up or download the game. Pre-order at GameStop and receive an additional 5 Standard Packs bringing your total to 15. Lastly, if you pre-order on the PS Store in addition to the 10 standard packs and Ken Griffey Jr. card, you will instantly receive 11,000 in Stubs for The Show 16. Here’s a handy chart below for how and where to pre-order:

I'm sure they have it like they did this year with a bunch of different flashback versions and his "prime" card will be released later.

But I'm ready to defend the coli belt :blessed:

Hopefully there will be a CF theme and they'll have Andruw Jones in the game this year.



Not feeling them having Griffey in a white sox hat. He was falling asleep in the clubhouse during games when he played for those fukkboys @Brozay
Nah that's from a HR derby. 98 I think.
