Plus: Each team's biggest offseason need
Nearly 70 World Series have passed since Willie Mays made The Catch, maybe the greatest play in baseball history, in the 1954 Fall Classic. Now Mays' legendary career will come to life for a new generation of baseball fans.
The documentary "Say Hey, Willie Mays!" premieres tonight at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.
Directed by Nelson George, the documentary features black-and-white and color footage of Mays' career, plus interviews with Mays, as well as many of his fellow baseball greats, from Barry Bonds and Reggie Jackson to Giants teammates Juan Marichal and Orlando Cepeda.
"I wanted nine guys on that field to play together," Mays says in the film. "Once we play together, we can win." |
