San Francisco Giants legend and baseball Hall of Famer Willie Mays has died, the team announced Tuesday. He was 93.
The two-time Major League Baseball most valuable player and 24-time All-Star is regarded by many as one of the best baseball players ever
"It’s been a really, I guess, good run for me, because when you can come into a town and people love you the same way where you came from, to me, that’s wonderful," Mays once said."I think it’s just a magnificent type of way of getting along with people." Though he never won another World Series, Mays racked up a number of awards. Among his many accomplishments, he was named Rookie of the Year and was a 12-time Gold Glove winner.
"My dad was my teacher. Willie was my godfather. Willie was my idol," Bonds said."There’s two comparisons here: to be a young kid and have a dream to be a baseball player and then the person you idolize is your godfather. What other gift do you want from that? All I cared was love, that he cared about me as my godfather and that I was good enough for him."
