Ricky Henderson and Lou Brock: The Greatest Player Ever
Ricky Henderson was a star player for the Oakland A's. He stole 939 bases in 1991, breaking Mark McGuire's all-time record of 939. But he didn't practice before games and once sat on his own toilet to get ready. In 1993, after being paid $36 million by the Athletics, he went from stealing more than any other player ever to not even looking at pictures while hitting home runs.
