Bing Crosby Wearing His Owner's Hat

From 1946 until his death on a golf course in 1977, Bing Crosby habored a secret passion -- the Pittsburgh Pirates. He owned a minority share of the team for 30 years, but it's fairly rare to see him in his baseball mode.
Here is pictured in harmony with the Pirates' $100,000 bonus baby, Paul Pettit, during the Pirates' minor league training camp in 1950, shortly after Pettit's bonus was announced.
