Description

Willie Mays was a tremendous athlete, and every facet of the game seemed to come naturally to him. He could hit for both average and power, finishing his career with a batting average of .302, 660 home runs and 1902 runs batted in. However, unlike some of the game's greatest hitters, Mays was also an outstanding defensive player. After their introduction in 1957, he won 12 consecutive Gold Glove Awards for his outfield defense and gained a reputation for making catches that no other player could. Case in point...The Catch in the 1954 World Series. This 16x20 photograph of Willie's World Series catch is hand-signed by Mays and quality framed in mahogany with a plaque commemorating this great baseball moment. A great piece of baseball history that would look stunning in any office or den. The perfect gift for that special baseball fan!
