The Say Hey Kid -- September 19, 2014


Inspired by the book Few and Chosen: Defining Giants Greatness Across the Eras by Giants great Bobby Thomson and Phil Pepe, I thought I would devote my nickname meme to Giants players for several months.

Much as I admire other men who have played centerfield for the Giants, I have to write about Willie Mays, the Say Hey Kid, 24-time National League All Star, Giants immortal, the greatest living baseball player, perhaps the greatest ever. 

I took the photo of the Willie Mays statue on 21-September-2007.
