Rickey Henderson, Major League Baseball’s record holder for stolen bases and runs, has passed away at the age of 65.

Nicknamed ‘The Man of Steal’, Henderson achieved an impressive 1,406 stolen bases and 2,295 runs during his illustrious career, which included World Series wins with the Oakland Athletics in 1989 and the Toronto Blue Jays in 1993.

A 10-time All-Star and the American League’s Most Valuable Player in 1990, Henderson entered the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2009.

“For multiple generations of baseball fans, Rickey Henderson set the gold standard for base stealing and lead-off hitting,” said MLB commissioner Rob Manfred. “He epitomized speed, power, and entertainment, setting the tone at the top of the lineup.”

Henderson’s MLB career also included a batting average of .297, 297 home runs, and 1,115 RBIs. His 81 lead-off home runs remain a record.

Henderson played for nine teams in the MLB from 1979 to 2003 but spent the most time with the Oakland Athletics, where he had four stints.

“We are shocked and heartbroken by his passing,” said the Oakland Athletics. “Rickey Henderson is one of the greatest baseball players of all time. His on-field accomplishments speak for themselves, and his records will forever stand atop baseball history. He made an indelible mark on generations of A’s fans.
