Many thanks to @USPS for honoring Willie Mays. We could not be more appreciative in this richly deserved honor for the all-time great. @SayHeyFdn
More great news from the SHF! The USPS is honoring Willie with this gorgeous stamp, which recognizes him via the 50th stamp in the Black Heritage series and is set to be released in the near future!

So glad to hear my longtime friend Bill White weigh in on his NY Giants roommate, Willie Mays.
Did you know that Mays and Bill White were roomates when White broke into the majors in 1956 with the Giants? During that time, Willie helped guide him through challenges he faced, turning his own experiences into valuable lessons for the next generation.

Does it get any better than this? An amazing catch by the Say Hey kid. @SayHeyFdn
With Game Four of the 2026 World Series tonight, we look back at the Giants’ 1954 WS victory.

New York swept Cleveland while Mays went 4-for-14 (.286) with four runs scored, a double, and three RBI.

Most famously, Willie made “The Catch” in Game One!
