I find it very interesting that Specs Toporcer is included in this set as a member of the Rochester Red Wings. He played with them from 1929-34 as a player and manager. Toporcer has a fascinating story. Here is a SABR write up on him: https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/specs-toporcer/

I just can't find a tie-in with him and this set. Rochester is 340 miles from Philadelphia (home of Mascot dog food), so he isn't a local hero.

Does anybody know why he would be included in this set?

This entire set is mysterious.
