Grew up in 60s. Still remember buying baseball cards at the local Mom & Pop grocery store and there was a Willie Mays card in the pack. It was a big deal for a 10 year old kid!

I bet it was. Johnny Bench talked about & posted photos of himself with Willie in his book From Behind the Plate that my mom bought for one of my older brothers back when Willie was still playing.

@@OspreyFlyer I live in Muncie, IN so back then the Reds were THE team here because Cincinnati is the closest Major League city to me. But the Chicago Cubs took over after the breakup of the Big Red Machine & they've dominated ever since & it doesn't help when Bally sports Indiana went bankrupt because we don't get Bally Sports Ohio.

Ted Williams, a legend in his own right, once said, "They invented the All-Star Game for Willie Mays." Mays made the Midsummer Classic every season from 1954 through 1973, or what served as his final season in the majors.

One legend tipping his hat to another. I have so many Willie Mays autographs, rare cards of his, singed bats, balls, pictures, you name it. Been down with P.E. since the late ‘80s when I discovered them. First cassette tape I ever purchased, the debut studio album: Yo! Bum Rush the Show. Still have it, along with, “It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back”, “Fear of a Black Planet”, “Apocalypse 91…The Enemy Strikes Black”. Respect the legends. ✊

Thanks Chuck d . I listen to 1930s jazz and this is in line with our history . Black Baseball players were our heroes in the negro league and MLB. So much so that star players had inspired jazz artist to sing songs about them . Yesterday I was listening to did you see jackie robbinson hit that ball by count basie. Rip Willie Mays
