Back: Hitting.
Better side: Rickey Henderson is better known for Rickey Henderson's prowess on the basepaths than at the plate, so that is Rickey Henderson's better option.
Ties to my personal collections: Rickey Henderson is on the Blue Jays here, but Rickey Henderson would also play for the Mets.
Paragraphs in wikipedia entry: 80
Wiki-facts: "In 1983, Henderson married his high-school sweetheart, Pamela. They have three children: Angela, Alexis, and Adrianna."
Google it: If you search on images, the first 15 photos are Oakland ones, with one being from a ceremony at the Stadium.
How was his strike-shortened 1994? Rickey Henderson was back with Oakland, batting .260 with 6 HR, 20 RBI and 22 SB.
Birthday boy: December 25, 1958. Rickey Henderson is not the only MLBer born that date, as that's also former Padres Gerry Davis's birthdate. The NFL has Jeff Rohrer and Hanford Dixon. Singer Alannah "Black Velvet" Myles is another 12/25/58 baby.
Next up: Mike Henneman.
