Can I cheat and guess that the one on the left is an American Beauty?

I prefer the throwing pose, but if the batting is a difficult back I would go with that one.

Default Throwing

Being anesthetically inclined, my preference has always been the throwing pose. And to not interfere with the hippocratic oath I swore to when I decided not to become a doctor, I voted for the throwing pose as well.

I like the throwing pose too, primarily because the batting pose always seems to be a little off register.

Anybody with the all-time career record for triples better have a bat in his hands.

I prefer the throwing pose. The batting pose just looks odd to me.

I would be willing to bet that Brian has never hit a triple.

I prefer the throwing pose, but I really like them both. When I first started collection T206, I remember thinking the batting pose looked goofy. I guess it's grown on my. I really wish he was given a portrait. That would be a great card.

Interesting that the vote is split but all comments favor the throwing pose. I too prefer the image and background of the throwing card. Just hits the eye better in my opinion.

my gripe is neither really looks like Crawford which has always somewhat held the cards back to me. I also wish he had a portrait so the monster had at least one good representation of Wahoo.

I voted for the throwing because at least it doesn't make his face look like a dried apple doll.

I prefer the throwing to his batting pose as well. Something about the batting pose just doesn't sit well with me.

I also agree with Luke. A portrait for Wahoo should have been warranted.

I prefer the Bat pose since there are a lot more front/back combos available with this pose......at least 18 versions as a T206.
