Rickey Henderson Passes Away. He was so full of life and talked about himself in the third person.

Modern era post WWII he is probably the greatest leadoff batter with respect to Tim Raines, and Wade Boggs.
Early era I got to go with Ty Cobb.
 
He died from complications from pneumonia. His death occurred just days before what would have been his 66th birthday.
Damn I have had that before.

I don’t know exactly what complications from pneumonia are, but whatever that means, I heard he went fast.
