    I've been trying to think of an athlete or coach with a color in his last name that also has additional letters in it.

    Sort of like James Whitesnake or Ahman Greenbay.

    Can't think of one.

    MLB All-Color Team:

    P Three Finger Brown
    C John Roseboro
    1B Hank Greenberg
    2B Red Schoendienst
    3B Al Rosen
    SS ?
    LF Roy White
    CF Al Oliver
    RF Rusty Staub

    I have given it all the thought I'm willing to and the best SS I can think of is Larry Brown, and Larry Brown sucked. It's possible Pete Rose played an inning or two at SS, but while I could have put him pretty much anywhere else, SS seems like cheating.

    This is for you @thisistheshow - Jim Rice was actually a pretty good player.

    It still leaves the SS looking way up to see any his teammates, but sure, Khalil Greene.

    Most of his teammates would be looking way up at a World Series Champion.

    And the manager of your team with Pete Rose on it could be Pete Rose's former manager, Dallas Green.
