When Ken Griffey Jr. received the call he had been inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on Wednesday, it was pretty casual.

His response? A simple "Thank you."

Griffey received the call about his record-setting 99.3 percent vote (437 out of 440 ballots) while leaning over an island in his kitchen with Jack O'Connell of the Baseball Writers' Association of America on speakerphone.
