To me an icon has to be transcendent though. I don't think Clemente or Pete Rose or even Willie Mays even transcended baseball. Mantle in my opinion certainly did. As have Jeter and Ichiro (in Japan). To be an icon (IMO) means that even people who might have never seen a baseball game before in their life know who you are.
