MLB icon Willie Mays dies at 93

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred issued a statement mourning Mays’ death, highlighting his impact on the game: “Willie Mays took his all-around brilliance from the Birmingham Black Barons of the Negro American League to the historic Giants franchise… Willie inspired generations of players and fans as the game grew and truly earned its place as our National Pastime.”

Manfred noted Mays’ remarkable achievements, including his military service and the iconic “The Catch” in the 1954 World Series. “We will never forget this true Giant on and off the field,” Manfred said, extending condolences to Mays’ family and fans.

Thursday’s game at Rickwood Field, originally meant to celebrate Mays and his peers, will now serve as a national remembrance of his incredible legacy.
