Griffey out of lineup with inflamed colon

[Funky Dredd]

SEATTLE -- An ailment diagnosed as an "inflamed colon" knocked Ken Griffey Jr. out of the Mariners' lineup for Monday night's two-game series opener against the Rangers.
Griffey explained before the game that he has experienced the same thing several times.
"It just comes and goes when it wants. It feels like someone kicked you in the damn side," he said. "I would be more than happy to demonstrate it on you. Just sign this waiver I already have printed up."
He was laughing.
Turning serious, the 39-year-old said his right side was sore Monday morning when he woke up, and he immediately realized what it was.
