Who is your favorite childhood baseball player?
As a kid in the 80's reading baseball books my favorite historical player was Ted Williams. Dude was the last to hit 0.400 in a season and lost a good chunk of his prime career to the war and still hit 521 homers.
My favorite modern player I watched (as you may have guessed from username) was Jeff Bagwell. I loved imitating his goofy squat stance while me and my brothers played back yard baseball with a tennis ball and rake stick. The guy hit for power, average, took walks, stole bases and body slammed opponents during brawls! He broke my heart in postseason play much of the time but still holds a special place in my heart regardless.
