PEORIA, Ariz. (AP) -Ken Griffey Jr. has decided to return to the Seattle Mariners.
The decision came after an apparent agreement with the Atlanta Braves fell through, a person with knowledge of the negotiations told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Mariners had yet to announce the deal.
The contract is for one year and is believed to be worth $2 million in base salary, plus incentives.
The 39-year-old Griffey is fifth on baseball’s career home-run list with 611.
