    Eugene Franklin "Bubbles" Hargrave (July 15, 1892 – February 23, 1969) was an American catcher in Major League Baseball who played for the Chicago Cubs, Cincinnati Reds, and New York Yankees. He won the National League batting title in 1926 while playing for Cincinnati. Bubbles' younger brother, Pinky Hargrave, was also a major league catcher. I wonder who came up with those nicknames...

A Chicago Cubs Batter Awaits A Pitch From A Visiting Oakland A's Player In A Game At Wrigley Field, 07/1973

    Doubt if the Cubs were playing the Oakland A's. Interleague play was not going on in 1973.
  • Seth Gaines said:
    Looks like he photographed a White Sox - A's game as well, and then got confused while labeling.
  • A Disappearing Act said:
    Could it be Ferguson Jenkins batting? The White Sox played a doubleheader against the A's on 1 July 1973 in Chicago. The same day, the Cubs were hosting the Mets for two games at Wrigley. Jenkins was pitching Game 1 of the Cubs-Mets doubleheader that afternoon. www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN197307011.shtml The only other African-American batting right-handed for the Cubs that day was Cleo James. There was also José Cardenal, from Cuba. But neither was as tall and thin as Jenkins. I'm perhaps too obsessed by this photo.
