Part 2/8:
One of the most amusing anecdotes regarding Ricky Henderson arises from the year 1990 during his time with the Oakland Athletics. At this time, Kirby Puckett had just signed the first-ever nine-million-dollar contract in baseball history, a three-year deal worth that staggering sum. Shortly thereafter, Ricky followed suit, signing for the same amount. Interestingly, shortly after this, the host of these engaging tales had just been traded to the San Diego Padres and received an extra hundred thousand dollars, making it an even more memorable moment.
