Willie Mays
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
Willie Mays was an American Hall of Fame baseball player, who played for the New York (later San Francisco) Giants.
In 2373, Jake Sisko and Nog got into trouble while trying to cheer up Benjamin Sisko by attempting to acquire a mint-condition 1951 Willie Mays rookie baseball card in an auction. Their quest for the card brought them into contact with Winn Adami, Elias Giger, and Weyoun. After the two came to the attention of the Dominion and were detained by Weyoun Sisko claimed that Mays was a time traveler and it was their mission to apprehend them. Weyoun did not buy the story and let the two go (DS9: "In the Cards"). The individual named Willie Hawkins who appeared in Benjamin Sisko's vision in Far Beyond the Stars seems to be based off of Mays (DS9: "Far Beyond the Stars").
