        The Griffeys have their numbers, and Tony Perez has his high honor.

        The Reds announced Friday that Ken Griffey Jr. will wear No.30, a number previously owned by his father, a former Big Red Machine catalyst and current bench coach. Ken Griffey Sr. will switch to No.33.

        Perez's No.24, which Griffey Jr. wore in Seattle, will be retired. A ceremony is expected to be held during the Reds' series May 26-28 against the Florida Marlins.
