Griffey was inducted to the team Hall of Fame before the game, then saw his old club give up two big innings to the Brewers. The first three Brewers reached in the seventh without the ball leaving the infield, but Gennett’s homer was the big blow. The Brewers added four more in the ninth against Seattle’s bullpen.
