Happy Birthday to the greatest baseball player who ever lived - Willie Mays.
"The Catch". That's all I've got to say.

Has his God-son suprpassed him? I would make a case for Bonds if he can hit .400 this season. What else would he have left to accomplish individually except 756?
As to the greatest of all time? I think the discussion should ALWAYS start at Ruth.
Posted by: Madfish Willie at May 6, 2004 10:53 PMThis one is strictly a gut-call. I grew up watching the senior Bonds and Mays. Barry Bonds is great, but for me, Willie will always be #1. SI did a bit on the greatest of all time a year or two ago, and Willie Mays came in #2 to Babe Ruth.
