Junior Pays a Visit To Dad's Old Office. It's not every teenager who gets to wander around the outfield at Yankee Stadium. 19 and the youngest player in the Major leagues, did that yesterday. He knew he was going to play centerfield in the game, so he worked out there, but he also visited leftfield and rightfield in the Mariners' pregame workout. "My father played all three in the years he was here, so I wanted to check out what kind of view he had, " Griffey Jr. He remembered the ninth-inning catch his father made in leftfield to rob Marty Barrett of a home run and save a 6-5 victory over the Red Sox in 1985. Had climbed the eight-foot-high fence, made a spectacular grab more than 10 feet off the ground, done a backward somersault after coming down and held onto the ball, a sequence that was a fan topic for days afterward. "I studied the angle he had and tried to figure how high he went, " the teenager said. I rated him a 10 on the catch and a 2 on the dismount. Had been here before, never to roam the field but as one of the clubhouse rats.

He and his brother Greg joined Lou Piniella's son, Jeff Torborg's boys and other offspring of Yankees coaches and veteran players in passageway games in the catacombs of Yankee Stadium outside the clubhouse. That was in 1983, Billy Martin was managing and it became a bitter memory. "The Yankees lost that day and there must have been 10 or 12 of us playing pickle when Billy went into the clubhouse, " Griffey Jr.

He sent somebody to tell my father to get his kids out of here. When we got home, my father said,'I'm never bringing my kids back to Yankee Stadium. He was upset because his boys had been singled out of a crowd of kids. Mom talked him out of it. She said,'I'd bring them every day.

There would be other visits, more pleasant ones. "Rickey Henderson gave me my first talk about baseball other than my father, " said Griffey Jr.

Recalling a more recent memory. He told me,'You're going to be here. He said that if somebody does drugs, his name may not be mentioned, but yours will be.

Has his own credentials to enter AL ballparks. It comes in the shape of a lithe 6-3 body weighing 190 pounds that's capable of making its own great catches. He made one a week ago in Boston that the Mariners will remember for some time. It was the bottom of the ninth in a tie game, and Wade Boggs led off with a shot to left-center. The centerfielder took off in a graceful gallop. He caught the ball with a leap just before his back crashed into the padded wall. The problem was that his head bounced off the concrete just above the padding. Finished the game, which the Red Sox won, and was taken to the hospital for precautionary X-rays.

Fortunately, he escaped with a bruise and was able to play the next day. "It was a great catch, " said Mariners coach Rusty Kuntz, who is working on refining Griffey Jr.

He realized he's going to have to take his lumps. He basically has no fear. That's how a potential great player starts out. You just hope he doesn't get hurt or takes unnecessary chances.

A ball caught against the wall like he did would take the average player out of the lineup a couple of days. He takes that shot and it meant nothing to him. He's got that youth going for him. He's a youth who is hitting. 292 with seven homers after only 128 games in the minors and a 1-for-18 start at the big-league level.

The lefthanded hitter went 1-for-4 against the Yankees, doubling to left in his final at-bat. Also was fined for wearing sneakers to the ball-park, which is against the Mariners' dress code on the road. "Me and Rickey are going one-on on, " he said. Henderson declined the basketball challenge. "Rickey said I got too big, " Griffey Jr.

Instead, he invited me to dinner. Maybe we can go one-on-one at the All-Star break. If Henderson picks up his pace, maybe they can do it in Anaheim at the All-Star Game. Powell gets pounded, Yankees beat Mariners 6-3. NEW YORK -- While the Yankees got rid of an arm from the past to make room for an arm of the future, Richard Dotson's arm of the present continued its improvement.
