Player ID Help
 
1 Attachment(s)
This photo has Louis Requena stamped on the reverse, and is of Jim Turner (pitching coach of the Yankees 1949-1959) and a player I need help identifying.

Requena covered the Yankees (and Mets) for 50 years from what I can find. There is no date anywhere on the image.

Does anyone recognize the player? Thanks for helping!

Looks like Ralph Terry

Medich
 
Looks more like Doc Medich to me.

Turner was also Yankees pitching coach from 1966-1973.

Good point. Medich's first year with the Yankees was 1972, so the time frame works.

Also Medich was 6'5"; Turner was 6'0" and in comparison the height looks more like Medich as Terry was 6'3".

I'm leaning to Medich...

Totally Medich. Good eye, 'rainiers.
