Grateful to have seen the following play:
Gwynn
Ripken
Puckett
Mcgwire (STL)
Mattingly
Also worth noting:
Dieon Sanders (NYY) - homered vs. Brewers
Bo Jackson (KC) - Saw him homer and get caught stealing in same game vs. Brewers.

Ken Griffey Jr.
I've seen Bonds and Sosa in person but I don't want to list them since they cheated. Same with Mark McGwire
I"ve also Miguel Cabrera in perso and I would rank him second after Griffey Jr.
I"ve also seen Cal Ripken, Eddie Murray, Frank Thomas, Tom Seaver, and Ricky Henderson.
For what it's worth I saw Wayne Gretzky in person.

With total bias, Frank Thomas. To see a guy with that much size and power also hit for average every year was a fun thing to watch.
White Sox-Mariners games in the 90s were just awesome to witness in person. Big Hurt, Junior, Tim Raines, young A-Rod, Albert Belle, Edgar Martinez, Bo Jackson, Big Unit, even Black Jack McDowell. As a kid, those games felt like big events.

We got a fair number of White Sox games here in the 1980s and 1990s. As bad as it sounds, I like both Chicago teams and wish I could have got to old Comiskey Park before they demolished it.
Was at the New Comiskey park in 2003 the night Frank Thomas hit his 400th home run.
