Ken Griffey Jr. moved into his new locker today at U.S. Cellular Field and quickly made himself at home.

Chicago's newest slugger is hoping to spend a lot of time in his new digs in October.

Acquired in a trade with the Reds last week, Griffey made his home debut against the Detroit Tigers on tonight after going 3-for-7 with a pair of RBIs in his first three games with the White Sox.

He got a rousing standing ovation before his first at-bat and waved to the crowd before stepping in the box. He then struck out swinging against left-hander Nate Robertson.

Griffey later acknowledged having some butterflies on the way to the park.

Going into tonight's game, Griffey was just one drive shy of tying former Cubs star Sammy Sosa for fifth on the career list with 609 homers before the game against the Tigers.
