I just got a news report that former San Francisco Giants baseball player Willie Mays passed away today at the age of 93.
When my dad took me to my very first baseball game, at the legendary Candlestick Park in San Francisco, it was a Giants game, where Willie Mays was playing. That was 1965, I was only five years old, and watching the “Say Hey Kid” got me hooked into baseball.
I never played the sport well; I actually enjoyed as now watching the games more. But it was Willie Mays that got me hooked.
As a fan, I can’t say enough about him; delightful personality great ball player, a true legend.
RIP Willie; the 5 year old kid still inside weeps and will miss you forever.
