Bill Walton, Jerry West, Willie Mays... Rest in Peace to the legends

[ConnorMiller]

One of the all time greatest baseball players. To think his career started out in the Negro Leagues and played 24 years at the Major league level and made the All-Star team every year proves just how great he was. And he was just an all round great person. Rest in peace Willie! ❤

Tears are falling. My heart is broken. My greatest sports idol is gone.
I love you, Willie.

RIP from a die-hard Brooklyn fan. There is no argument. You were the best center fielder of the three. You played in an era of Aaron, Mantle, Musial, Snyder, and Joe. Blessed to have seen you at Ebbets, Dodger Stadium and Candlestick Park. The epitome of class. I tip my blue cap. ❤ ⚾️ 🙏

I'm glad I got a chance to see him play when I was a kid in the 70's

Willie Mays, "The Say Hey Kid", will ALWAYS be ONE OF THE TOP 5 GREATEST BASEBALL LEGENDS IN HISTORY!!! From playing in the Negro Leagues with the Birmingham Black Barons to the San Francisco Giants (winning the Rookie of the Year and the 1954 World Series), and Having arguably the "Greatest Catch" in History and 660 Home Runs!!! Thank you, Willie, for all the great memories!! Rest in Power!!

R.I.P to a legend and the purest baseball player to ever step on the field..

[Ohyeahjiful]

First time I saw him @Old Tokyo Stadium when SF Giants came to Japan. Rest in peace Willie-san.

As a Midwesterner, he was my boyhood idle. I wore his # and so did my son. God bless #24.

[robbieerta]

The greatest all around player in baseball history..Rest in Paradise Willie..

[ChessemillPerezChristopher]

Saw him with the Mets 73, in Atlanta, hard to believe I saw him and Aaron in the same game. So grateful for his event. RIP legend

My dad taught me so much about baseball and he told me to do what Willie did and you'll do just fine for he is the best ever.

It was always magical to me when they would recognize Willie Mays in the stands during games at Candlestick - like a moment out of time where the legends of the past walked among us. That connection with the past was one of the things that hooked me on baseball, but I don't think I knew that until today. Than you Willie for everything, and go Giants!

None greater than the "Say Hey Kid", Willie Mays... one of my favorite ball players as a boy and to this day.
He did it all... and like Ernie Banks, Mays had that 😊😁
Prayers for his family, friends, teammates, and

I've been an A's fan my whole life but I have great respect for the man. True legend. God bless.

He could do it all, and nothing he ever did was done without a style and grace that were his and his alone. Watch him, watch the films, the swing, the basket catches, the throws: words fail, he was the greatest.

I hope Pedro understands people hold him in a similar light

Lord Jesus he was my grandad's favorite baseball player RIP

It must have been 1970 or 71 and the Mets were in SF playing the Giants. Mays hit a game winning HR, what today is called a walk off. I got so mad, I went in to my room, took Mays' baseball card a ripped it up! I was 10 YO and the Mets were everything to me! I did see Willie a few years later when he came to the Mets in 73 and cried when he retired.
