George Medich 1972
A's shots of Medich are common - there are four shots of him at Getty and Topps got him, too.
There is the one black and white pre-game shot of Medich in a Mets uniform in Pittsburgh - everything else is photoshopped. For a long time there was a game action on the Getty site of a Mets player wearing 22, pitching in Pittsburgh, identified as Medich. It seemed too good to be true - and it was. I can't remember now if it was Hank Webb or Dale Murray but I finally talked them into removing it.
There are no photos known of Medich in a Mariners uniform. The "Mariners" headshot is this Texas headshot, altered. Among other things the piping coloring is wrong.
