Also I remembered him from a clue I once set myself, it was similar except Patrice was clued 'Arsenal No. 2' (Pat Rice)

Urry could be a word for hurry minus the first letter. Dash or dart, therefore the name beginning with Ash or Art. No idea about the tiger bit unless made is an anagram indicator.

No anagrams, and Urry has a capital U even if it wasn't at the start of the sentence.
John Urry is a sociologist, Tiger could be Woods and there is a baseball player called John Woods...but I doubt that's right as it doesn't account for the 'made' bit...

I'm afraid my knowledge of the inventors of batteries and baseball players are very limited. Lou Ghering (?) I've heard of but apart from Jo di Maggio and Jackie Robinson that's about it'
The golf clue could be Rough, Alan Rough , but I don't see that fitting withe rest. Adam could be Charlie or Ant I suppose?
Some good thinking but no breakthrough I'm afraid.The Adam refers to a player in the sport mentioned in the clue. Not the most well known of footballers so here's the letters: (5,7)
