The best break of his life was playing professional Baseball in the Negro Leagues with veteran ballplayers, including his dad, Willie Mays Sr. Because of his youth and experience at that level, he was a sure bet to make it with a major-league baseball team in the aftermath of Jackie Robinson's breakthrough in 1947.
His worst break in terms of his baseball career was missing most of the 1952 season and all of the 1953 season due to a military obligation to the U.S. Army. Had he not missed so many games, he might have been the first player to surpass Babe Ruth's record of 714 lifetime home runs. Mays ended his career in 1973 with 660 homers.
