Remembering Dave Henderson with a smile
The late, great Dave Henderson.On June 23, 2014 the Oakland Athletics celebrated the 25th Anniversary of the 1989 World Series Championship Team. Today they will do so again, this time honoring them during their 50th Anniversary season in Oakland, prior to their game against the team they swept to win that Championship, their cross-bay rivals the San Francisco Giants. It’s an extremely fitting day for this celebration, as today also marks what would have been the 60th birthday of one of their own, the late, great Dave Henderson, better known to most as simply Hendu.
