Michael Jordan. Ali is also in that pantheon. But I think the absence of a modern baseball player to rival Ruth is at least somewhat reflective of a much wider sports world that goes beyond the baseball and boxing centered 1920s.

Agree with above. Maybe add Gretzky, Tiger Woods, Shawn White, and Tony Hawk, but no baseball players.
