Former All-Star outfielder Rickey Henderson has passed away at the age of 65...
quote:

Henderson started his MLB career in 1979 with the Oakland Athletics. He then spent a few seasons with the New York Yankees before returning to the A's. Outside of playing for the Athletics and Yankees, he had stints with the Toronto Blue Jays, San Diego Padres, New York Mets, Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Seattle Mariners and Anaheim Angels. The 10-time All-Star finished his career with 3,055 hits and 1,406 stole bases. To this day, he remains the league's all-time stolen bases leader.

Damn, I can't ever forget those yankee teams he was on. Gonna have to dig out my Topps Henderson Rookie card, and hang it on the wall.

Wow! Very sad. He was fun to watch because you knew he was going to steal a base at some point and he did with great success! True Legend!
