I keep going back and forth about whether or not Pee Wee Reese is iconic. He anchored their infield for 17 years in two cities (with a break for World War II), won seven pennants and one World Series (plus another as a coach the year after he retired), and put his arm around Jackie Robinson, but when I think "Brooklyn Dodgers", I think of Robinson, Hodges, and sometimes one or two others before getting to Reese.
