Spahn, Killebrew, Aaron, Musial, Gil Hodges, Roy White (the classiest Yankee during their fallow 1965-74 period), Tom Seaver, Lyman Bostock (before his tragic murder), the list could go ever onward and upward, as Billy Strayhorn liked to say . . .

Your original additions were quite good, but I just had to add Warren Spahn to the list. My parents took me to a game in 1957 in Milwaukee and Warren Spahn was pitching (he won the game). The most memorable sporting event I have ever attended.
