13. Bo Jackson
| He was a marvel straight out of Marvel Comics. Bo once ran along an outfield wall -- parallel to the ground -- after making a grab (Vroom!), threw a ball from the warning track to home on the fly to nail a runner (Whoosh!), hit one of the longest homers ever off Nolan Ryan (Pow!), pancaked Brian Bosworth (Wham!) and became the first NFL runner to break off two touchdowns of more than 90 yards (Zoom!). He also made one of the most courageous comebacks in baseball history, playing with an artificial hip. Naturally, Bo homered in his first game back (Gadzooks!). |
