A phone conversation between Reggie Jackson (563) and Willie Mays (660)

NEW YORK -- As Reggie Jackson talked on Saturday about how one gets used to being passed on the all-time home runs list, as Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez did on Friday, Mr. October took a bit of a detour. In the process, he gave us a little bit of insight into what happens when 1,223 home runs worth of knowledge gets on the same line:
"I was watching the game the other night with Willie Mays on the phone. We were on the phone for about 45 minutes and we were talking about Alex. He was in a little slump there. Willie was talking about some of the things he was doing. We talked about home runs. We talked about steroids. Stuff like that."

It's awesome that the two obviously stay in touch through all these years. But it's sad that steroids have tainted the game so much that it's a topic of conversation even for these legends.
