Favorite Home Run Hitter without 500 HR's or more?
I cant poll this one because thee were/are so many that had their lights shine bright for not as long as others.
Al Rosen
Larry Doby
Yaz
Stan Musial
Lou Gehrig - 493
Willie Stargell.....

Being Red Sox fan I'll have to go with my childhood idol Yaz! 452

1. I can't decide
It's either Joe Garagiola (42) or Bob Uecker (14.)

2. Albert Belle....
When he was hot, he carried the tribe....

Manny Ramirez never gets the cred... Cause he's such a flake...

And Jim Thome is a throwback...

But my favorite is Yaz and Musial... Cause they were Polocks....

3. Carl Yastrzemski was my hero as a child.
When he retired, and took that long run around the Fenway field, part of baseball died for me.

He also missed 4+ season due to WWII.
