Also, it is not found on a consistent amount of copies for this explanation to be warranted. Copies with the red line are much more scarce, at approximately a 50:1 clip and every copy I've seen with the red lines have them in the same location every time.

Here's a sold one on ebay:

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
