San Francisco Giants podcast with Michael Duca:
#1 The San Francisco Giants paid tribute to the late great Willie Mays showing the St Louis Cardinals and San Francisco Giants at the Rickwood game in Birmingham on the Oracle Park scoreboard at a live Watch Party what was that like?
#2 Michael, this was not any ordinary watch party, this game was originally was to pay tribute to not only the Negro League players but by very sad coincidence Willie Mays passed away two days before this tribute game on Tuesday.
#3 Willie’s career was something everybody had gone over this week, the 660 career home runs, 3293 hits, 1909 RBIs, a 23 years career, and a lifetime batting average of .301. Talk about those numbers and what stands out for you.
#4 Michael just wanted to ask you something that Bob Costas said after learning about Willie’s passing Costas said that if they shrunk the Hall of Fame down to ten people Willie Mays would there amongst the ten.
#5 Lastly, your best Willie Mays experience, you had a chance to rub elbows with him many times of those times what most stands out of those times that you got to talk to him.
