No, that's Hershberger

He was in Cleveland's camp in 1972, then released.

Most major league teams in the '60s tended to use the previous season's uniforms in spring training and break out the new ones - whether they were new designs or just repeats - on Opening Day. That was when a player was expected to make it through a season in a couple of sets of unis.

The Indians were notorious for changing their uniforms (new designs in 1970, 1972, 1973, 1978). That shot of Hershberger is from '72 but he's wearing a 70-71 shirt.

By the way, THIS is Gomer Hodge.

Thank you for the clarification.

I wonder why he didn't mention it in the article? It seemed to me he was saying he was done after he declined to sign with the Yankees.

Speaking of Hershberger...........

Does anyone know if Mike Hershberger was in any way related to Willard Hershberger who played for the Reds from 1938-40 before commiting suicide on August 2, 1940 while an active player. I had read much speculation about the subject (Mike was from Ohio and Willard played for the Reds) but no one had a solid answer. The Reds manager, Bill McKechnie, supposedly talked to Willard Hershberger just before the incident and learned what was troubling him but McKechnie never told anyone what Willard had shared with him.

Here are a couple of Willard Hershberger:

Looking for: A *decent* Pirates photo of Jim Shellenback

Within this thread, or thru Googling, the Jim Shellenback pics I see are very small, and his expression often looks as if he's trying to get peanut butter off the roof of his mouth.

I'm requesting a nice looking Pirate photo of Jim Shellenback, do any exist?

Richie Scheinblum is probably one of the least-known players to make an all-star team, but in 1972 the entire Kansas City Royals outfield was selected to the American League All-Star team as reserves: Amos Otis, Lou Pinella and Richie Scheinblum.

It's still a very good find! Thanks! Jones is standing next to Minnie, one of my all-time favorites. This was a very strong second-place team finishing with an 89-65 record just 5 games behind the "Go-Go" White Sox and ten games ahead of the Yankees.

Jim Shellenback

1966, I believe - with that lovely Topps watermark in the middle.

The second shot, the portrait, was used on his 1967 card.

Watermark notwithstanding, that first one's the nicest shot of Shellenback I've seen. Thanks very much.

Photoshop time.

Ralph Shafer 1914

The Ralph_Shafer image in the Facepack and on Shafer's B-R.com page actually shows career minor leaguer George F. Schaefer with the 1909 Vernon Tigers. Here is Shafer, during a tryout with his hometown Reds after returning from military service.
