    Maybe he's upset that he paved the way...and the guys that followed him made all the bank.

    When the Giants made Mays the first ever 100,000 dollar a year player. The Yankees jumped right in and gave Mickey Mantle the same salary..

    Mays played the game well into his 40’s because he loved the game. It hurt some of his stats, but he did not care. He was just doing what he loved..
