Legendary director Rob Reiner died tragically earlier this month, and while he leaves behind a legacy of great films he was also a massive baseball fan and was actually a SF Giants fan once upon a time.
Reiner has talked about how he grew up a New York Giants fan as a kid in the Bronx. His favorite player, unsurprisingly, was Willie Mays and he recalled having debates with his friends over who the best center fielder in New York Was between Mays, Mickey Mantle of the New York Yankees, and Duke Snider of the Brooklyn Dodgers.
