Item Description: Say Hey: The Autobiography of Willie Mays by Willie Mays with Lou Sahadi. Copyright 1988; hardcover w/dust jacket; 286 pages. Illustrated with B&W photos.<P>In <I>Say Hey,</I> his long-awaited autobiography, Willie Mays tells the story of his life, both on and off the baseball diamond. Born in Westfield, Alabama, in 1931, the son of a mill worker who played semi-pro ball in his spare time, Willie was playing catch with his dad at age two. By the time he was fourteen he was a pro, playing in the Negro Leagues against such stars as Satchel Paige, Cool Papa Bell, and Alonzo Perry. Six years later he was wearing the uniform of the New York Giants, playing his heart out for his manager, Leo Durocher, and tens of thousands of cheering Polo Grounds fans. For the next twenty-two seasons Mays delighted fans nationwide and captured the heart of America as the "Say Hey Kid," whose awesome, record-shattering achievements at bat, in the field, and on the base paths were surpassed only by the ineffable grace and spirit with which he performed them.<P><I>Say Hey</I> is sports autobiography at its very best, chock-full of Willie's reminiscences about his greatest plays, his greatest teammates and opponents, and infused with his unflagging love for the game of baseball. But he also talks frankly about his personal life, his views on the numerous changes and crises in today's game, and his most bitter moment in baseball, when he was banned from the game by former Commissioner Bowie Kuhn for his association with Bally's Casino in Atlantic City. For anyone, young or old, who loves the game of baseball, <I>Say Hey</I> is essential reading.<P>Good condition with minor wear to the dust jacket. There are some very small brown spots on the outer edge of some of the pages.
