Ricky Henderson, one of the best to ever play the game of baseball, has passed away at the age of 65. No base was safe from him. Thanks for the memories, Sir.
Goodbye to a Legend

Wow, so young. RIP Ricky
Homered 81 times to lead off a game, unreal speed and power.
It was a pleasure to watch him work.
I read he passed after being admitted to a hospital for pneumonia?
Damn shame, RIP

He’d be almost unstoppable under today’s rules where the pitcher is limited to two throws to the base.
Talk about an all around ball player.

Thats what I was saying during the 2024 season. While baseball was praising a 50/50 season. My thought was.
Can you imagine Ricky playing in these conditions.
He would have 75 bags a season…
But then I caught myself.
Ummm well He already averaged 74 stolen bases a season.
His most was 130 sb w 10 HR
His most productive 87 SB with 28 HR.
A ball player with his talent would require defensive adjustments.
Rest in Peace Ricky
Papa
