Great all around leadoff hitter. Pretty young age to go. RIP.

Wow . He was great

In the words of Bill James, you could cut Henderson in half and have two Hall of Famers.

RIP

 

[Nosferatu]

The guy was insane. He stole bases that nobody today would even try to steal. Miss his old school approach. RIP

Rickey was one of the great ones between the lines.

The first true LEADOFF hitter in MLB... he could do it all.

RIP, brother.
