"More famous", I'd go with Fox. He played during the beginning of the TV era. If you judge by the old baseball adage for good teams being "strong up the middle", Fox fills the definition well. He was a key player on some very good Sox teams in the 50's and early 60's that could never get past the very good Yankee teams of the era. Had Fox played on the Yankees during that time there'd be a monument to him in center field at Yankee stadium. Wilson was a fine baseball player but had his demons.
