and a purity in how he played that shaped every part of seeing it. that swing way back number 600 for willie mays, sudden and powerful to produce 660 home runs, a 302 career average, almost 3300 hits. willie mays gets his 3,000th base with that glove. 12 gold gloves actually flashing the range and the speed catching the ball at his hip or over his shoulder. >> i love defensive and defensive to me, is the key to playing baseball. >> that swagger from the way he threw out runners to how he stole bases, to how long he endured and how supremely he performed. >> i play the same all the time. whether we playing that died as a player, anybody. i try to play my same brand of ball every day. >> you can describe his career through the numbers and the accolades. world champion, two

time mvp, four time home run leader, 24 time all star but no cold metric or analytic. contains that feeling that made us want to swing and throw and run and play like he did, just for the chance to share in the joy he radiated before the world wanted to be like mike, it just wanted to say hey to the say, hey kid, now we want nothing more than to say it ain't so not to have to say goodbye to willie, to the kid, to the man. and to the feeling. >> baseball was a beautiful game . it was such a beautiful game that i just wanted to play it

forever. i just had fun and enjoyed it. >> for more now on willie mays, we are joined by our jason appelbaum. you know willie mays, his name is just synonymous with baseball. i think when the news broke of his passing, it stunned a lot of people. >> it certainly shocked me. and it's, you know, two days before the historic game was going to be played at or will be played at rickwood field, really to honor him and others from the leagues. but yeah, beyond the numbers, which were obviously hall of fame worthy. i mean, willie mays played with such a joy and a passion that, you know, brought in so many fans that wouldn't otherwise have been baseball fans. you know, he he it's kind of cliched when you say this, when someone transcends the game. but he really did transcend the game. the way he played epitomized the joy of the game of baseball. and, you know, in his early days in the 1950s, early 1950s, when he broke in with the new york

giants for the home games there, he would go out on the streets and he would play stickball with the kids, you know, a couple nights a week. you don't see that anymore. buy him ice cream and a game, you know. you know, you don't see that, but yeah, when the news came in today, you know, it was one of those like, oh my gosh, you know, this is, this is something that, you know, he will never be forgotten, for baseball fans, because what he did for this sport, you know, i think is second to none really. >> and, you know, i was sitting at my desk tonight watching a lot of the former giants, more recent giants talk about willie mays. and they loved his presence in the clubhouse that he would just sometimes watch video, sometimes say a quote or two. and j.t. snow, i was watching the former giants first baseman said one of his favorite willie mays quotes was to go practice like a pro and to go play like a kid, you know? so you work and work and practice and then just enjoy the game. yeah, you know, and that's what

he did out there that that youthful exuberance. >> right? i mean, we just said that you saw that in him, right? >> playing like a kid. >> yeah i mean that's how that's how he played. and i and i really think that, you know, i was again, i was trying to think about how you would relate that to maybe a modern day athlete here in the bay area. and you know, in some ways, steph curry is a genius with the basketball and his stats. i mean, he breaks all these three point records and but the way he plays with such joy and passion is the way willie mays played. and i think that's what people remember. he had some swagger. you know he had a smile on his face. yeah. that smile he he he'd make this catch to win the game. and, and you know and you know he he'd have a smile on his face. you know, when he really touched the lives of millions of americans. >> he's an iconic figure. he's a giants legend. talk about the significance of the game at rickwood field coming up on thursday night when the giants play the cardinals, it was supposed to be a celebration, but i really think now it's

going to be much more like a tribute to willie mays, who started there. >> yeah, he played 1948, the season there with the birmingham black barons. one season, he was 17 years old when he played with them, played in home games there so that he could play high school football because he was a, you know, multi-sport star, track, basketball, football, obviously baseball. so it will be a tribute to willie mays. it'll it'll it'll you know, it. there's going to all the living members that can make it from that era will be there. and you know, willie mays wasn't going to we heard yesterday there was a statement from him. he wasn't going to be able to make it. we now know how sick he was. but that game will now turn into a full tribute to willie mays and his career. and in some ways, folks and fans of generations who weren't familiar with his game will now know a lot more about willie mays than they ever would. >> it will be a memorable night, and our greg lee is going to be there too, to bring us all the stories from rickwood field. >> thanks. more to come. jason.

call them over and say, here, here, this is for you. >> larry baer said, mays spirit and loved the game of baseball will live on for generations and that a celebration of life will be planned at the ballpark in san francisco later in the season. >> willie mays was also an important figure to former san francisco giants great barry bonds. mays was bond's godfather, and bonds called willie mays a second father figure. both are considered legends of the game, and both played the majority of their careers for the same franchise. in the giants. bonds posted this photo on instagram, writing, i am beyond devastated and overcome with emotion. i have no words to describe what you mean to me. you helped shape me to be who i am today. thank you for being my godfather and always being there. give my dad a hug for me. rest in peace willie. i love you forever. >> and news of willie mays death set in plenty of giants fans in the bay area. some say they immediately went to the ballpark

>> it's like something hit me right there in my chest. >> but he recalls with fondness, a lifetime of admiration and respect for mays when he came up to the plate, he put himself in a character and he knew why he was standing at the plate that i'm going to score and score he did. on and off the field, friend and former mayor willie brown says that early in mays baseball career, he served in the u.s. army. brown says mays would have easily exceeded his career total of 660 home runs, but that mays was more than an exceptional athlete. he was an exceptional human being, never in confrontation on anything, whether it was how much he was paid, it was how where somebody made a bad call with reference to him. >> willie mays was very, very unusual at that time, and even now he became kind of a symbol of what people would want black athletes to be like. >> and fans say he carried himself that way throughout his

life. one man shared these photos of mays when he came to throw out the opening pitch for a little league game in 2008. that fan was emotional when he came to oracle park to pay his respects. >> it's going to miss him. going to be hard, i think means a lot to the bay and right here in san francisco. >> fans recall mays nickname as the say hey kid, which referred to the spirited way he greeted his teammates. and it's that memory that brought smiles to their faces in this time of sadness. mike julie amberleigh live tonight in san francisco. >> amber thank you from san francisco to birmingham, alabama, where it was an emotional night at rickwood field, where mays began his playing career tonight during a minor league baseball game at the field, fans were saddened to hear about the death of willie mays. >> willie mays, one of the greatest players in the history of our game, has passed away at

is bringing his hall of fame plaque here that was planned before he passed. i think there's going to be a lot of tears shed in birmingham and across the country, and rickwood field will never be the same now that willie has passed. i mean, it had to happen eventually, but his memory will will be on the minds of everyone who comes through here even more than it ever was. >> and this will be a game you're not going to want to miss. as the baseball community gathers to honor willie mays in alabama, the rickwood classic between the san francisco giants and the saint louis cardinals is on thursday. coverage begins at 4:00 in the afternoon right here on ktvu, and we will have much more on the life and legacy of the great willie mays when we come back. >> stay with us.

person and an inspiration to an entire generation. i'm lucky to have spent time with him over the years, and michelle and i send our deepest condolences to his family. >> and as mentioned, the death of willie mays comes ahead of the rickwood classic. ktvu jason appelbaum shows us it's also where it all began for the great willie mays. >> willie mays was born poor on the outskirts of birmingham, alabama, in 1931. it was the beginning of the great depression and nearly a quarter of the working population was unemployed. an african american kid growing up in alabama at that time could not expect to have an easy go of it. kat mays, willie's father, played some baseball, but the major leagues were blocked off to black americans. in an early 2000 interview ktvu did with mays, his memories of that time were still as vivid as ever my father had. >> he was busy trying to make a dollar for us. he would work,

work five days in. we called the steel mill in birmingham and done the weekend. he would, you know, go from birmingham to detroit on the pullman porter, which is a train, and earn a little money there and come back on sunday night, go to work on monday. but he would teach me as he come home to different things about, you know, sports and i think i learned it from him, from my mother, my, my uncle was his name was otis. otis brooks young willie mays grew up on one of those hot, dusty streets of alabama, went to school and played baseball from an early age, falling in love with the game at the age of five. my father used to roll the ball on the floor to me, and i would try and hit, you know, the ball would, you know, kind of broom hall and different things like that. but my whole family came through a baseball family. my mother, you know, ran track. my father played baseball. i had an uncle that played basketball, football, baseball. so i was really thrown into it. and, you know, as soon as i was born. so

at an early age, i knew what baseball was all about. you know, at age 17, while still in high school, mays earned a spot on the birmingham black barons and all black team. >> prohibited from competing against white athletes for years, mays only played in home games that allowed him to continue playing high school football, even playing part time in his only season with the black barons, he helped lead them to the american league championship in 1948. one day new york giants scout eddie montague came down to rickwood field to check out another player, alonzo perry, but his eyes were quickly drawn to mays, whom he would later call the greatest young ballplayer he had ever seen in his life. >> he say he saw me out on, you know, on the field, throwing and running, and he recommended me to boston at the time. and i think boston wasn't taking, african-american at that time. so they didn't take me. so he

quit. he went to the giants, and he called mr. stoneham, and i guess he hired me right away. so that's really how i think i got to the giants. >> it would be the find of a lifetime, and it didn't cost the giants much. >> i think it was about 15,000 involved. i think the ball club got five and i think i got ten, either may have been five. i know we bought a house. i bought a 1950 mercury. i couldn't drive, but i bought it anyway. so all the neighborhood people could drive it around. so i think it was more of 5 or 6 around there, but that was a lot of money in those days. you know, the car that i bought cost $2,000. so the house i paid off cost me another, you know, one. so i was okay with the money. >> the year was 1950, one year later with the giants, mays would be named national league rookie of the year and his hall of fame career was off and running. but it all started at rickwood field, home of the birmingham black barons and the birthplace of willie mays.

used in the serial stabbings in davis. carlos dominguez is accused of killing two men and hurting a woman in a series of attacks in 2023. he has pleaded not guilty to all charges and enhancements. today, a judge scheduled his trial to begin on april 28th, 2025. the yolo county deputy public defender has argued that schizophrenia fueled the suspect's behavior. >> tonight, the richmond city council is debating a tax measure targeting the chevron refinery. council members are scheduled to vote on whether or not to put an oil refining tax on the november ballot. now, if approved by voters, chevron would have to pay $1 per barrel of raw materials refined in richmond. the tax would generate an estimated 60 to $90 million a year to the cash strapped city. a large number of residents turning up today, some with signs saying reject the tax and several chevron employees said the tax will hamper improvement efforts.

>> there's a lot of investments that we want to continue to make, and this tax takes money away from that opportunity for us to make the refinery better for the community. >> local environmental groups backed the measure. they say chevron made more than $21 billion in profits last year while violating clean air regulations in richmond more than 300 times. >> children who grow up in richmond are admitted to urgent care for respiratory issues at triple the rate of kids across california. chevron ceo would rather take a 12% raise to make 26.5 million a year than to put a tiny portion of their profits into the community's hands. >> now, chevron calls this a hasty proposal brought forward by one sided interests. the oil giant says richmond already collects about $46 million in taxes from chevron per year, about 25% of the city's budget. tonight's city council vote has

not happened as of yet. discussions are still underway at this moment. >> a nice day today. temperatures a little warmer than they were yesterday. temperatures tomorrow will be cooler than they were. actually a little cooler today and a little cooler tomorrow. pardon me. it's going to be cooler tomorrow by a good 4 or 5 degrees. so these are the temperatures from today. so subtract 5 to 8 degrees or something. maybe even ten degrees from these temperatures. the hot spots are going to be mid and low 80s. it's going to be a nice day. fog returns. so you'll see that at the coast this low pressure to the north is the reason for the red flag warnings. the last couple of days. it is now moving off. and as it moves off and kind of weekend, it's going to create the fog and low clouds of the coast and keep us in a semi mild pattern. so the cooling tomorrow looks like this 89 and then down to 81. so there's eight degrees cooler in santa rosa. it's ten degrees cooler in san mateo. so that low is doing its thing. it just by its proximity, by being close to us, it drops temperatures. and it doesn't hurt that the fog is going to

reform and come back again. probably, probably by at least tomorrow afternoon. temperatures to today, temperatures tomorrow. and then they kind of climb out of here. it doesn't get horribly hot. saturday is the warmest day. we'll get some mid 90s, but it's not a heat wave or anything. and then temperatures kind of drop down on sunday. so a nice week ahead. it's been a pretty, pretty good pattern for us. again, the fire danger, the red flag warnings have been dropped. air quality. they're issuing a spare the air day again for tomorrow because of smoke from a lot of the smoke is coming from the umms site. fire up around colusa. but certainly some of the smoke is coming from the point. fire as well. so coming coming down from the north, the current temperatures mid 60s. it's kind of mild. 70 in brentwood, 60 in livermore, 60 in novato, 16 degrees cooler in novato. so that's your sea breeze kicking in 11 degrees cooler in palo alto than last night. at this time. there's the low right there. and it's really hard to see this time of year when you get into the summer

months. the jet stream gets further north and that's where all the activity is. the things that happen down this way, down where we are at our latitude are subtle changes like the fog. so here's tomorrow morning. the model says fog back burns off. slow temperature footprint looks like this. that's pretty. that's pretty mild. fire danger is always high. let's just face it. we should have a fire weather alert for the entire summer. as far as i'm concerned, we don't have any alerts tomorrow. but it's even though it's cool, mild, it's still a high fire danger. just in my mind, because it's california and hasn't rained in a while, and it's not going to rain for a while there. the forecast highs for the next few days. solstice comes up on thursday. the warmest day of the week is going to be on saturday, probably mid 90s. >> all right, bill, thank you. san francisco city leaders are proposing turning a stretch of the grade highway into an oceanfront park. members of the san francisco board of supervisors submitted a ballot measure that would make permanent a pilot program that made a two mile stretch of the highway into a flat promenade. and that stretch of highway goes

the greatest giants ball player of all time, the legendary willie mays has passed away at the age of 93. mays he broke into the majors with the new york giants in 1951. he won rookie of the year honors, and his hall of fame career was off and running. he would go on to hit 660 home runs, appear in a record tying 24 all star games, and as good as he was offensively, mays was equally brilliant in the field. his catch in the 1954 world series, given what was at stake, ranks as one of the greatest of all time. there's a long drive way back in center field, way back, back it is for me. >> willie mays just brought this crowd to its feet with a catch, which must have been an optical illusion to a lot of people.

>> yeah, it was no optical illusion, but that catch at the polo grounds robbed cleveland's vic wertz of extra bases and set the tone for what would be a four game giants sweep. the first and only world series championship of mays 23 year career. the say hey kid was inducted into baseball's hall of fame in 1979, and beyond the numbers, no baseball superstar in history brought more joy, charisma and flair to the game than the great willie mays and emotional giants announcer dave flemming. one of the voices of the giants. he was calling the game on the radio. the consummate professional, he tried to keep it all together as he announced mays passing the all time greatest giant, a number 24, willie mays has passed away today at the age of 93.

>> and right as we get ready to. head to his hometown and honor a great willie mays. we have to say goodbye. >> yeah, we're getting choked up on on the set here. listening to that, the giants ended up losing to the cubs 5 to 2. but after the game, it was all about willie. >> just as a kid, being able to watch him him play. you know, i grew up watching games at candlestick park and loved baseball. you know, because of willie mays. so it meant that much. >> really sad news, you know, but willie lived a great life and i was fortunate enough to meet him and have some great conversations with him. and, you

know, just praying for his family and, you know, everybody that had a relationship with him. it's, it's a tough pill to swallow. >> we got to meet willie for the first time when i was, 17 years old and in trucks and, every year i've got to listen to his stories and talk to him. >> so it's a, you know, a sad day for the baseball world, but it's a really sad day for the giants. >> and the announcement of mays death spreading through the sports world in new york, another special place for mays. here's how the news was shared during the yankees orioles broadcast. >> we hate to report this. the giants just sent this out on social media. it was great sadness that we announced the san francisco giants legend and hall of famer willie mays passed away peacefully this afternoon at the age of 93. just awful, awful news. willie mays considered one of the greatest players who ever lived. you could make the argument he might have been the best ever, most athletic, played with the giants in new york, san francisco and

finished his career with the new york mets. just a sad day in baseball. we lost one of the best. >> yeah, willie mays will forever be remembered as the greatest giant who ever played a man who transcended the sport, played with a passion and joy unmatched in history, and inspired generations of players for years to come. sad day in baseball today. all right, jason , thank you. >> more coverage of willie mays right now. next at 11, the greatest player who ever lived and a hero to the community. >> he means a lot to everybody here in a lot of ways. and, kind of miss him tonight. >> the bay area in mourning and honoring the life of willie mays after the extraordinary say, hey, kid dies at the age of 93, the 11:00 news on ktvu. >> fox two starts now. >> many will remember willie mays is one
