Baseball Legend Willie Mays Passes Away at 93
The world of baseball mourns the loss of Willie Mays, a true legend of the sport, who passed away at the age of 93. The San Francisco Giants, his long-time team, confirmed his death on Tuesday, announcing with heavy hearts, "It is with great sadness that we announce that San Francisco Giants Legend and Hall of Famer Willie Mays passed away peacefully this afternoon at the age of 93." This announcement was made on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Major League Baseball (MLB) expressed its profound sorrow over the passing of Mays, acknowledging him as "one of the most exciting all-around players in the history of our sport." Mays’ illustrious career was marked by numerous accolades, including being named the league’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) twice and leading the Giants to a World Series victory in 1954. Known affectionately as the “Say Hey Kid,” Mays was the oldest living Hall of Famer at the time of his death. His legendary over-the-shoulder catch during the 1954 World Series remains one of the most iconic moments in the history of baseball, a testament to his exceptional skill and athleticism.willie mays,willie mays catch,willie mays giants,willie mays baseball,willie mays dead,willie mays catch 1954 world series,willie mays dies,willie mays the catch,willie mays death,willie mays ny mets,willie mays highlights,willie mays world series catch,willie mays mets world series,willie mays hayes,willies mays dead,willie mays stats,willie mays teams,willie mays mets,cubs willie mays,willie mays obit,willie mays alive,willie mays movie
