There are a few people who are locals here in L.A. that I think have helped themselves. Rex Hudler is a wonderful announcer. Lasorda after playing was still a HOFer. Jimmie Reese is a popular local as well and his rookie card is a tough find. Lasted forever after playing as a scout and coach. I would also have to say Jackie Robinson...did as much after as he did before for baseball and the country.
Eddie Grant gave his life for his country...as did others. Jim Abbott will one day be regarded as a great player and greater human. Even get a chance to see him speak, do so! Depending on your political slant...Senator Jim Bunning. Just a few off the top of my head. Edited to add Curt Flood...although playing just 13 more games...after his career was over he was still a pivotal player in getting free agency up and running...whether that is good or bad ??????????
