Remembering Willie Mays on what would have been his 95th birthday

On what would have been his 95th birthday, Giants legend — and former Atherton resident — Willie Mays received the ultimate gift, as the San Francisco Giants and Say Hey Foundation, in conjunction with senatorial sponsoring parties, announced the designation of the Willie Mays Highway.

Senate Concurrent Resolution 169, brought forth by Senators Bill Dodd (D-Napa) and Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) with several co-sponsors, provided for the portion of I-80 where the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge enters the city near the ballpark to be renamed the Willie Mays Highway.

And that wasn’t the only Mays sighting, We also spotted this good-looking t-shirt!
