Ricky Henderson is the most talented baseball player I have ever seen. There's no one else who had his combination of speed and power.

He had a bunch of funky records like most leadoff homeruns, unintentional walks etc.

I agree that Ricky was one of the most talented players ever. He is one of my all time favorites. I can’t believe that he could pass at such a young age. Not good. Besides the stolen bases and total runs he must have the record, by far, in lead off home runs. Totally unbelievable. As a manager, how would you like to have a lead already before there were any outs in the first inning. That’s Ricky.

After Willie Mays died earlier this year, me and my buddy were trying to come up with the greatest baseball player either of us had ever seen in person. After about two seconds, I realized it was Rickey. Wow. He was my age. RIP. He was unique.
