Happy 82nd birthday, Willie Mays - McCovey Chronicles



Still the greatest baseball player who ever lived. This from Leo Durocher pretty much describes the reason why. Happy-B-Day, Willie Mays.

from the McCovey Chronicles:
Happy 82nd birthday, Willie Mays - McCovey Chronicles:
Here's Leo Durocher on Mays:
If somebody came up and hit .450, stole 100 bases, and performed a miracle in the field every day, I'd still look you right in the eye and tell you that Willie was better. He could do the five things you have to do to be a superstar: hit, hit with power, run, throw and field. And he had the other magic ingredient that turns a superstar into a super Superstar. Charisma. He lit up a room when he came in. He was a joy to be around.
