Extractions: Rickey Henderson Rickey Henley Henderson (born December 25 ) is a professional baseball player. Many include him among the greatest players of all time, including Rickey himself. Statistician Bill James was once asked if he thought Rickey Henderson was a Hall of Famer. James' reply: "If you could split him in two, you'd have two Hall of Famers." Henderson was born in Chicago, Illinois , but grew up in the city of Oakland, California and became friends with Oakland Athletics owner Charles O. Finley as a boy. Henderson, blessed with speed and explosiveness, was eventually drafted by Oakland in and worked his way through the minor leagues in just three seasons. He made his big league debut with Oakland on June 24 Henderson batted .274 with 33 stolen bases in little more than half a season and (it could be argued) was as strong a Rookie of the Year candidate in as either of the co-winners. However, Henderson did not receive any votes for that award. Finley hired legendary manager Billy Martin in , and his "Billy-Ball" propelled Rickey into stardom, when he became the third modern-era player to ever steal 100 bases in a season ( Maury Wills (104) and Lou Brock (118) had preceded him). (Henderson would finish his career with three 100+ SB seasons 1980 (100), 1982 (a record 130), and 1983 (108), a feat matched only by

Extractions: By Allen St. John For years I've had this ritual. Every morning, I log onto my computer, check for desperate e-mails from desperate editors, then open the bookmark for Rickey Henderson's career stats. I scroll down to the runs-scored column and see if, based on last night's action, the number has inched closer to 2,245. It's the kind of guilty pleasure only a baseball fan can understand. Baseball is the only sport where stats really resonate, where you can forge a connection with your favorite player based on a page full of numbers. It was about eight years ago that I first noticed that Henderson had a legitimate shot at breaking the longest-standing major hitting record on the books: Ty Cobb's mark of 2,245 runs scored. And this is the week that he finally did it.

Extractions: By Allen Barra If there is ever a prize awarded by baseball writers for "Biggest Jerk Ever Elected to the Hall of Fame," I'm sure Rickey Henderson will qualify for it. (I'm not including Ty Cobb in this category; his would be "Psychotic Racist.") Unfortunately, it looks like he's going to qualify for it sooner than he ought to: As I write this, Rickey's agent is doing everything but offering coupons to get teams interested in his client; a minor league contract is even being talked about. Now, Rickey Henderson is either the best baseball player of the last 20 years or he isn't, and, myself, I wouldn't say he is, but he has definitely been one of the top four or five, and can anyone remember a player this great who had to beg for a minor league contract in order to get a shot at one more year in the bigs?

Extractions: Sep. 19, 1967- Baseball player. Jim Abbott is one of an elite group of major-league pitchers to have thrown a no-hitter, a feat he accomplished while he was a New York Yankee in 1993. Abbott, who began the 1995 season as a member of the Chicago White Sox and ended it as a California Angel, is also among the few hurlers whose fastballs have been clocked at over ninety miles an hour. What makes his success all the more remarkable is the fact that he plays ball without a right hand. He was born with a rounded stub at the end of his right arm, with one small, finger-like protrusion where his right hand should be. He pitches with his left hand, with the palm of his glove resting on the stub. After each pitch, he quickly switches the glove to his left hand, so that he can catch or field balls thrown or hit back. Prior to becoming a major-league pitcher, Abbott was an Olympic gold medalist, a collegiate baseball all-star, and a high-school standout in three sports. Abbott's athletic achievements have amazed sports fans and inspired countless numbers of Americans with disabilities, who flock to ballparks to see him pitch. He receives hundreds of letters a week, many of them from handicapped children and their parents, and he tries to answer as many as he can, even though he has never considered himself to be disabled. "I just don't think all of this about me playing with one hand is as big an issue as everyone wants to make it," he told Ira Berkow of the New York Times (December 25, 1992). "I don't try to run from the attention about it; I just accept it." Abbott maintains that the toughest thing he faces is not his disability but major-league hitters. The feeling is apparently mutual. "He's got the hand that counts," Larry Sheets of the Baltimore Orioles told a reporter for the Washington Post (April 26, 1989) after facing Abbott's power pitching for the first time.

Capable both of breaking a game open with a home run and of disrupting opponents' defenses with his baserunning, he was almost unique among leadoff hitters, perhaps the greatest in baseball history. In 1982 he stole 130 bases, a single-season record, and in 1991 he stole his 939th base, breaking Lou Brock's career record. In 2001 he stroked his 3,000th hit and broke Ty Cobb's career record for runs scored and Babe Ruth's for walks, ultimately scoring 2,295 runs and receiving 2,190 walks.

Extractions: A flashy player known for his head-first slides, "snatch catches" and prancing home run trots, Henderson has been a fan favorite everywhere he's played, and one of the game's all-time greats despite accusations of selfishness and ego. Bouncing from team-to-team, Henderson spent four different stretches with the Oakland A's, with whom he won a World Series title in 1989. In that Series he hit .474 with four extra-base hits and three steals to instigate a sweep of the Giants. Henderson is the all-time leader in walks, steals, and runs scored, and collected his 3,000th hit, in 2001.
Extractions: Thats happened to me with Rickey Henderson. Its April and its become pretty clear to me that Rickey is the man whos come to lead the Red Sox to the Promised Land. Hes going to do all the "little ball" things the Sox are traditionally so lousy at and hes going to teach Johnny Damon how to be a great leadoff man. And hell be crying his eyes out this October when hes won the World Championship so late in his baseball life. On the first pitch to the next hitter, Johnny Damon, Rickey takes off for second. Despite Wells staring right at him, he gets a great jump and steals second with a head-first slide. Youve seen it a million times: Rickey hugging second with both arms, helmet knocked down over his eyes craning his head to see the umpires call of safe. A pitch later, Damon slaps a single into right and Rickey flies home without drawing a throw. Hallelujah! Sox come back to win it 7-6.

Extractions: Alpha Index Index by Sport Index of Women Career Batting Record Other Resources Considered by many experts the greatest leadoff hitter in history, Henderson is a rare combination of hitting ability, power, and speed. He has led the AL in stolen bases 11 times, including 7 seasons in a row, in walks 3 times, and in runs scored 5 times. Henderson holds major-league records for most career stolen bases with 1,095, most steals in a season with 130 in 1982, and most home runs leading off a game, 63. He joined the Oakland Athletics during the 1979 season. In 1980, his first full season, he led the league with 100 stolen bases. Henderson had a league-leading 89 runs scored, 135 hits, 56 stolen bases, and 327 outfield putouts in 1981, when a player strike shortened the season. With Oakland, Henderson also led in steals with 130 in 1982, 108 in 1983, and 66 in 1984. He was then traded to the New York Yankees. Despite missing nearly a month of the 1985 season with an injury, he again led in stolen bases with 80, and repeated with 87 in 1986. An injury limited him to only 95 games in 1987, but he bounced back with a league-leading 93 steals in 1988. The Yankees traded him back to Oakland during the 1989 season, when he led in steals with 77, runs scored with 113, and walks with 126.
