Ballpark Statues:

[clydepepper]

With my attention to the new Hall-of-Famers, I was surprised to see that Harold Baines had a statue.

I, then, decided to search for images of other Ballpark Statues. In doing so, I finally saw the unusual statues outside National's Park.



I recall the Astros erecting statues of both Biggio and Bagwell at the same time, and then, IMO, sweating out Bagwell's delayed election.



Now, I realize that you don't have to be a Hall-of-Famer to have a statue made of you and displayed outside a stadium, but I do wonder:

1.) What do you think of the statues that are currently displayed around the Majors either at the ballpark or located in close proximity?

2.) What's your opinion of the type 'motion' art-style used in the Walter Johnson, Josh Gibson and Frank Howard statues in Washington?

3.) Which statue currently displayed is your favorite?

4.) Whose statue would you like to see added to the current group.
