I think it was in Ricky's second year that Lou Brock was broadcasting a game with Garagiola and he was asked if anyone will break his records. His reply was "that guy coming to bat will break them". That guy was Ricky.

Probably my all time favorite player. He could hit for power of he wanted to. (All time leader. In lead off the game homers) Greatest base stealer of all time and a terror for pitchers when he was on base.

Yes,if a pitcher walked him it was pretty much an automatic double.
