Wake Up With Rickey Henderson's First Bomb As A Mariner

For a guy his size, Rickey Henderson really did have some good power. 297 career homers, 81 being leadoff homers. 81! That's insane. Obviously he was known for his storytelling and base stealing, but you couldn't act like he was a one trick pony. Nowadays, if a guy is a stolen base king he's literally just that. Just a speed guy, that wasn't Rickey. He could do it all. He also played for like 23 teams, guy got around. I just wish he'd have done his little 2 step for this homer. I completely forgot he even played for the Mariners, but you could also say that about the Dodgers, Angels, and Blue Jays. Just an all around spark plug guy.
