Episode 98 (Re-Run) - Rickey Becomes the Greatest

This Week In Baseball History

In memory of his passing and in celebration of what would have been his 66th birthday, please enjoy this re-release of our episode focusing on the great Rickey Henderson:

One of the most dynamic players of all time, Rickey Henderson still has many fans polarized. But everyone seems to agree that he was the best leadoff man and base stealer in baseball history. And, it was 28 years ago this week that he cemented those titles with his 939th career steal, breaking Lou Brock's all time record. Mike and Bill dig into Rickey's past and his path to becoming, in his words, "The Greatest," as well as his excellent and unexpectedly extended denouement. Plus, happy birthday to Phil Garner and Jeff Reboulet!
