The greatest all around player to ever grace a diamond, says me, who was lucky enough to have a Dad who took me to Candlestick Park between 1965-1971. Willie was my childhood idol (I played centerfield in little league because of Willie I can still see him making basket catches in centerfield, and rounding 1st base to stretch a single into a double. Memories I will never forget!
