Abstract
While in town to play the Chicago Cubs, New York Mets center fielder Willie Mays speaks with WLS-TV reporter Bill Frink at Wrigley Field. After a shot of Mays warming up in the field, the 42 year-old is asked about mentoring younger players and what his future holds.

The 1973 season was Mays' 22nd and final season in the MLB. He is widely considered one of the greatest players of all time, and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame during his first year of eligibility in 1979.
