baseball Hall of Famer Boggs (4)
I believe the answer is:
wade
'baseball hall of famer boggs' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for wade that I've seen before include "Move through sea" , "Walk through water or mud" , "Walk through liquid" , "British winner of Wimbledon Singles in 1977" , "Stride through water" .)
