[QUOTE=rhettyeakley;1097077]The main star of the 1917 movie "The Pinch Hitter" was Charles Ray, he would also appear in the 1919 baseball film "The Busher". That may be Ray next to McGraw getting some pointers. Here is a very rare promotional card featuring Ray in his later role as
the busher, I have only seen two copies of this card and I sold Leon the other one...
Thanks you are probably right. The player in the dugout looks a little like Chief Meyers but he was no longer with the Giants in 1917. I came across this link about silent era baseball films that was interesting.
