Well, I just went out and bought MLB The Show 2016 for Playstation 3, thinking that I could get it on discount since it’s the end of the season. And I did just that, so I was all set to not have to buy the game again in 2017, buttttttttt now I do since:
The Kid is back!

The greatest player of a generation and my favorite player of all-time is back in his best form to be the coverboy for the 2017 version. It’s fitting that the greatest player of our lifetime is on the greatest game of our lifetime as well. The Show is the best baseball video game currently out and only compares with MVP 2004-05 as the best baseball video games ever.
I was at Ken Griffey Jr.s’ Hall of Fame induction this year and am pumped to have another game with his likeness on it.
Here’s to you, Griffey!
