Royalty

Henry Aaron, Johnny Bench, Sandy Koufax, Willie Mays.

Don't know the date but from the years before Henry Aaron's passing in January 2021.  Willie is now 92, Sandy turns 88 in December, while Johnny, only 75, is the kid in the group.  The Real Home Run King, arguably the greatest catcher in major league history, the most dominant pitcher in baseball until arm problems forced his retirement at age 30, and arguably the greatest all-round player in baseball history.

Inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1972, Sandy has been a living member longer than any other player since its founding in 1936.  Willie was inducted in 1979 and is the oldest living Hall of Fame member.  Johnny was elected in 1989 in his first year of eligibility.

Thank you for the memories.
