Rickey Henderson, a Baseball Hall of Famer and MLB’s all-time stolen bases leader, has died, The Post has confirmed.
He was 65.
Henderson, a 10-time All-Star and 1990 American League MVP, was the game’s greatest base stealer, racking up 1,406 stolen bags in his career, an MLB record that still stands.
He is also MLB’s leader in runs scored with 2,295.
He played with nine teams over a prolific 25-year career, spending the bulk of it with the A’s, with whom he played 14 seasons over multiple stints.
He also played seven total years in New York, five with the Yankees (1985-89) and two with the Mets (1999-2000).
One of his teammates in The Bronx shared his condolences on Saturday.
“I still cannot believe I’ve lost one of my favorite teammates and great friend Rickey Henderson. Rest in peace,” former Yankees teammate Dave Winfield wrote on Instagram.
