Interesting. Doesn't appear to be spelled wrong.

Nolan Ryan has to be pretty high on the list. The baseball message boards on Facebook are enamored with him; you risk getting into a very ugly discussion if you insinuate the least negative thing about our all-time K / no-no leader.

Don’t know about the ‘most’ part but Vin Scully is one I’d consider a legend and I think he’s beloved.

if you go by name recognition, reputation with the public, and overall excellence in his sport, I think it's got to be Jack Nicklaus. I would say Hank Aaron but Nicklaus has been, through the years, much more visible in public. Michael Jordan is more famous but I'm not sure the "beloved" title fits him as well.
Just watching Nicklaus win the Masters in '86 was enough for me. In Detroit it would be Al Kaline. He's the very definition of "beloved" here. |

Before he passed, Musial was a very beloved figure.
