MLB states that it is a generic stance based upon no one particular player. This, from the original graphic designer.
Popular rumor holds that is Harmon Killebrew. (I have also, long ago, heard that it was Pete Rose, and one can easily see why MLB would not want that to be known, were it true.)
No one player has been identified, but urban legends believe that the man is Harmon Killebrew.
