Classic Photos of Reggie Jackson

Former Yankees great Reggie Jackson is in the news after stating in this week's Sports Illustrated that some of Alex Rodriguez's statistics are tainted because he admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs. In the same interview, Jackson also said that Gary Carter, Kirby Puckett, Don Sutton, Phil Niekro and Jim Rice all don't belong in the Hall of Fame. As the baseball world reacts to Jackson's comments, SI takes a look back at the legendary outfielder's career, including this shot of 22-year-old Jackson speaking with A's fans at the Oakland Coliseum.
