I am 69 years old. He was the greatest of my lifetime.
Side note: He missed 266 games while serving in the military.

How did Willie Mays get the nickname say hey?
Mays received $6,000 for signing with the Giants after graduating high school in 1950. New York Journal American sportswriter Barney Kremenko said that in Mays’ rookie season, the reticent Mays “would blurt ‘Say who,’ ‘Say what,’ ‘Say where,’ ‘Say hey. ‘ In my paper, I tabbed him the ‘Say Hey Kid.
