There is no better role model than Curtis Granderson

Curtis Granderson is an exemplary ambassador for the game of baseball. Grandy busts out of the box as if he's going for a triple every time. He plays the game the right way, does oodles of charity work, and is a well-spoken advocate for education. In my opinion, there's no better role model in baseball, and in life, than Curtis Granderson.

Read this excellent article on Granderson by Jon Paul Morosi of the Detroit Free Press.

"There are so many fine young men playing Major League Baseball today, but I can think of no one who is better suited to represent our national pastime than you." - Bud Selig, in a letter to Curtis Granderson
