I tried to emulate his game but never could. I played a lot like him in some ways but he was such a bull in a china shop with finesse. I really loved how he played.

Pete Rose, Hank Aaron, Dave Kingman, Al Kaline, Ken Griffey Jr., Tony Conigliaro (Don't ask me why), Craig Nettles, Denny McClain (Yeah), John Smoltz, Greg Maddux, Ozzie Smith..... Many more but these came to mind first.... Yep, baseball players...

You should read up on Pete Reiser. PeeWee Reese said if you think Pete Rose hustles, you should have seen Pete Reiser. Leo Durocher compared him favorably to Willie Mays. Serious injuries curtailed his career early. He was literally carried off the field on a stretcher 11 times. In his days, outfield walls were not padded.
