Rickey and I share this birthday. Often, when I give my ID to religions clerks they will say something like “Someone very special was born that day.”

Favorite Rickey story of all time; Rickey’s rookie year, and the A’s were having trouble with one of their rival teams (I think the Angels or the Royals). One of the coaches gives a speech about how their opponent puts on their pants one leg at a time, just like the rest of the league does.
