Former Major League Baseball superstar Ricky Henderson is the greatest to ever steal bases. With an impressive .401 career on-base-percentage, Henderson was always on first base. He stole over 1,400 bases throughout his 25-year career and was one of the most confident players to ever put on cleats. Ricky is a true legend.
He also had a flare for the dramatic, and often spoke in third person.
Rickey respected me as an elder, but he was always funny. Lots of confidence and sometimes I got confused because he spoke in the 3rd person 😂 https://t.co/7DDOuZFeaP

Hall of Famer Rod Carew revealed exactly what Ricky would say before stealing a base.
He always said, “Rickey’s gotta go!” right before he stole https://t.co/UueYIvYIFZ

Ricky stole a record 130 bases for Oakland in 1982 and posted an 81 percent success rate stealing bases.
Ricky most certainly has to go!
