Say hey Willie made it into every conversation my Dad and I ever had about MLB greats. Dad wanted to be buried in his Giants jacket. He loved comparing Mays and Mantle and comparing them to modern players. He always said Mantle was the most talented player he had ever seen, but Mays was the first guy he'd pick by a mile if he was building a team.

The Stick fucked his HR total.
and the fact that he was in Korea during the prime time of his career… two more years of home runs would have made him the all time HR leader
Anything to skip the Negro League tribute game.
