I remember that. And both those records will ever be broken. Face it… Ricky is the greatest lead off man in the history.

In 1985, Henderson of course led the American League in steals, but for the first time in his career, he led the entire major leagues in WAR (9.9 bWAR, 9.7 fWAR).
Rickey failed to receive a single first place vote for the AL Most Valuable Player award.
Instead, first baseman and fellow Yankee Don Mattingly won the award handily with 23 of 28 possible first place votes.
In fact, Henderson alone accounted for more than a third of the baserunners Mattingly cashed in, when RBIs were considered the gold standard for MVP.
