Rickey also had a 9.9 WAR season in 1985 with the Yankees.

Scored 146 runs to lead the majors that year, 80 steals, hit .314, All Star, Silver Slugger, and finished third in the MVP voting.

Which one?

 

[[REDACTED]]

RIP

When i was a kid, I loved researching players from the past. Rickey was one of those players who didn't even seem real, because of how unique and talented he was.

Which one?

The one by Howard Bryant

I don't even follow baseball like that, but he was a legend.

The only person who properly report Rickey being gone is Rickey.

That’s why this feels so odd and not true.

My nikka damn-near in the Yankees dugout rounding 1st base

That was his first game back in New York after the Yankees traded him to Oakland.

1 of 1 is correct. An original

RIP to THE GREATEST BASEBALL PLAYER OF ALL TIME. fukk what anyone else says. Rickey was the reason I fell in love with baseball as a 7 year old. He’s the reason my first jersey number was 24. Played left field. Batted left in an unorthodox stance. Stole bases even when my coach wouldn’t give me the go ahead. Slid head first. Pimped out the first HR I ever hit. There will never be another. Highly recommend Howard Bryant’s book on him. This legit got me misty eyed

Even TMZ has put out false info and had to retract though.

Yeah its rare tho.

Been plenty of times people tweet some shyt and its not true.

Not saying his boy is lying but if TMZ let alone any other outlet hasn’t reported then I just wait.
