  • love that inside the parker,and watching those dodgers jump

  • Mays had a better career than Mantle, but Mantle had it all over Mays in natural ability, much more raw power, and faster than Mays.

  • Greatest? Hmmm? YES...Greatest.

  • I was a 8 years old baeball playing kid when the Giants came to town in 1958.

    I got to see him play in SF for many years.

    With all reespect to all the other greats

    in all of babeball I've seen over that 51 years.

    #24 is no question the greatest player I ever saw.

    He could do it All-Amazingly.

    Great video-Thanks-Say Hey!

  • Mays never did that. He came close once, getting 3 assists on three different bases in one game, against LA, in 1966 I think.

  • Ever heard of Kirk Gibson????

  • I agree. Charles Epstein wrote a book called Willies Time that was amazing. Brocasting a road game from Atlanta stopped a race riot in San Francisco. Broadcasting a road game at that time was unheard of. Wille had what they called an outfilder cycle, he threw a guy out at each base from center field in one game. This book descibes him as a super human type player. I wish i could have watched him play.
