The retirement is not for everyone, as is apparently a case for the baseball hall of Famer Ken Greef Junior. Recently, he has been in the spotlight to be in the masters this week, which is a credential photographer for Master.com. Getty image photographer Ben Jred captured Grife on the course, which looks connected to Sony 400 mm or 600 mm lens with his camera.

In 2010, Grife Junior retired as a 13-time MLB all-star from baseball. He spent most of his career time for Seattle Meriners and Cincinnati Reds, although he also had a short term with Chicago White Sox. He picked up a camera in 2015 and has been photographed since then.
Grife Junior originally joined photography not only because of his love for sports, as he explained Morning in mastersAs a celebrity, no matter where he goes, he is sure to pay attention. This attention was found on the way to watching his children’s game, and he was often distracted. Therefore, photography became a way for them to avoid all attention. “My daughter really stopped drinking a basketball and saw me when she was five years old. I was fine, I got more attention to what is going on.” “I thought there is no mess with the photographer, let me take it well, let me try it.”
While this is the first time Grife has taken pictures of masters, her photography has taken her in many programs. He has served as a credential photographer in MLB, MLS, NFL, NASCAR and Indycar events. Masters run through the weekend, and the grifte will be there through the junior end, which captures this phenomenon until a large closing with the prestigious green jacket.
Grifei is not only former MLB players – or players for Seattle Meriners, for that case – to turn to photography, either. Pre -pitcher Randy JohnsonThose who played 22 seasons in MLB, about a decade for mericious, are also a photographer. Johnson studied the photo journalism at the University of Southern California before going to Prof. when photography naturally went to the back burner. He has taken pictures of NFL games, concerts and many wildlife. His logo – a dead bird – refers to a famous moment in his baseball career when one of his pitch killed a bird when he flew into the ball.
