#OnThisDay in 2024, #RickeyHenderson, American Baseball HOF outfielder, 1979-2003 (10 × #MLB All-Star; World Series 1989 Oakland A's, 1993 Toronto Blue Jays; AL MVP 1990; MLB stolen bases record 1,406), died from #pneumonia at 65.
#RIP 🕊️

The thing that gets to me about the #SacramentoAAAAs is that they're all wearing number 24 on their jerseys to honor #RickeyHenderson and Rickey deserves better than this.

Gone way too soon. Arguably the greatest baseball player ever… #rickeyhenderson did it all. And I mean, he did it all. Post-career, when Kim and I would attend Spring Training or local minor league games, you would regularly find him in full minor league uniform, actively coaching and sharing his vast wealth of baseball knowledge with any aspiring ball player. Here are a couple photos from a 2010 Sacramento River Cats game, and a from a Stockton Ports game taken just this past August 2024.

#RIP to the GOAT of base pilfery.

Steal away forever, #RickeyHenderson.

It's been almost 9 years in the #BayArea and never been in an #A's game before, so we are fixing that.
