NEW YORK - Willie Mays has won the inaugural Lifetime Achievement Award presented by Baseball Digest. The Say Hey Kid appears on the cover of Baseball Digest for the fourth time. “But to be honoured with this Lifetime Achievement Award, that’s a great honour, especially with all the other great names (considered). It’s a sports award, it’s a baseball award, but it’s much more. “Just as he thrilled us during a Hall of Fame playing career that spanned four decades, Willie has exemplified the best qualities of our game and our country in the nearly 50 years since his retirement.”___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_SportsLoading...
