    Mickey Mantle, because he was what MLB, wanted in every ballplayer. He was to them, Mr. Baseball, All-Star,boyhood idol.

    Most rumors and hearsay indicate that the model was Harmon Killebrew, but that has never been officially confirmed.

    It is just a shadow. It deplicts no one at all. Just a baseball player.
