Happy 93rd birthday Willie Mays
The world’s greatest living baseball and two sewer stickball player will turn 93 tomorrow. Dave @gs568 and A-Dog can confirm this.

Mays, a great man from an era when bats were not altered, balls were not live, and juice came in a carton.

The bats were certainly altered, along with the balls. Norm Cash won the ‘61 AL batting title hitting .361 using a bat that was drilled out in the end and filled with sawdust, cork and glue. Using the same bat he hit a paltry.243 the next season.

I have the complete MLB 1961Topps Set and Willie Mays AS card is my most favorite.
