Griffey pays off Fogg in penniesCINCINNATI (AP) -Ken Griffey Jr. owed Cincinnati Reds teammate Josh Fogg $1, 500, and paying by check just wouldn't do. So when Fogg arrived in the Reds clubhouse Wednesday, he found his locker filled with 150, 000 pennies - 60 boxes, each weighing 16 pounds and containing $25 worth of pennies. ``Basically, it's like having 60 bowling balls in your locker, only with no holes to pick them up with,'' Griffey said. Neither player would say why Griffey owed Fogg the money. Griffey had threatened to pay it off in pennies, but Fogg didn't believe him. ``I'm going to take them out to the bullpen and count them,'' Fogg said. ``I've got a lot of time on my hands out there.''
