Reynolds not sounding board for Griffey Jr.
By
ATLANTA Harold Reynolds said if Ken Griffey Jr. is complaining about ESPN, it's not to him.
We talk every day, said Reynolds, Griffey's former teammate who is now an analyst for ESPN. But he's never complained to me. The only time he's called me at work is when I've paged him. He doesn't have that number.
A St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist wrote that Griffey called ESPN and complained that the network was showing too many highlights of Jim Edmonds and not enough of Griffey.
I've been trying to think where that might have come from, Reynolds said. The only thing I can think of is about three years ago a group of us was talking about baseball. The catch that Edmonds made over his shoulder when he dives came up. You know the one. It's the catch.
Ken said there are five or six guys who are standing under that ball and don't have to dive.
