...Giants that cost the Mets one minor league player, at least $50,000 cash and a five-year contract with Mays that will run to more than $500,000. Mays, at 41, had been batting only .184 in San Francisco. But he promptly responded to his homecoming with a flash of his old form. In his first game as a Met, playing against his former Giant teammates, he hit a game-winning home run. Again, last week against Philadelphia, he hit another winning homer.

As a two-year-old, he took the Flash, the Futurity, the Champagne Stakes, the Pimlico-Laurel Futurity and the Garden State, collecting a total of $503,263 in prize money. In his first trial as a three-year-old, following a long winter's rest, he ran away with the Hibiscus Stakes. After missing out in the Everglades, he returned to the winner's circle last week with a coasting four-length victory over ten other...
