I purchased a lot of three (3) photos and this was one of them. I can see an Athletics player sliding into 3rd base. Can any A's fans, or baseball fan in general, tell me who this is so I at least can document who the player is? Also, "possibly" the 3rd baseman for the other team as well?!?
Also, hopefully this is the correct area to post, if not sorry about that... Any help would be great. Thanks in advance! |

Is there any date or at least a year. By the uniform, this is Kansas City from 1955 to 1960 uniforms.

I could be way off but the sliding player reminds me of Ray Boone who played for KC in 1959.

There was no markings as to the date or the year that these photographs were taken. I know the photographer was Frederick A. Kraft Jr. which I believe was with the News American. The other two photos were from early 60's, but I guess that doesn't mean that this particular picture is from that time frame.

My first thought is that he resembled Enos Slaughter, but I'm probably way off...

OK, From 1955 to 1959, only 2 AL third sackers wore number 17. Chico Carrasquel (ss, 3b) and Rudy Regaldo, who played very little for Cleveland in 55 and 56. So my bet is #17 is Chico Carrasquel, if that is the third baseman covering the bag. Carrasquel had the same physique as #17 in the photo.
He played for CWS in 1955, Clev. in 1956-57, Clev & KC in 1958 and Balt in 1959. Good luck.
