The Red Sox connection is pretty solid, but a second theory is that Walberg appeared for a few games with the semi-pro Brooklyn Bushwicks. One of their various caps over the years looked like the "B" the graphic artist painted on the photo. I am away on business so I can't check my library but I seem to remember a newspaper piece about Walberg and some of the A's playing for or against the Bushwicks in 1932, Many of the big stars, especially world series participants, would make an appearance at Dexter Park to play with or against the Bushwicks from the 1920's through WWII.
