A few choices---

George Herman Ruth... a man to which all baseball fans should pay homage, without him and his legendary ability, baseball may not be what it is today

Joe DiMaggio-- my one true favorite, Joe was probably one the best all around players of all time. His 61 game hitting streak could stand for all time.

Jackie Robinson-- he brought baseball into the 20th century and beyond

Roger Clemens- whether a Sox, a Jay, a Yankee, or an Astro.... love or hate him, he is one pitcher on the mound to be reckoned with. The Mike Piazza, Roger Clemens battle is one of my all time favorites.

Derek Jeter- he exemplifies today what the game is all about ... hard work, leadership, teamwork, and commitment.
