It does look similar to Michael Jackson to me. Jackson was from Gary, Indiana which is fairly close...like 45 min. away from Chicago. Not much supporting evidence there but, something to think about I guess.

I found a tour date list for the Jackson 5, they finished a tour in Memphis on April 1, 1972, then didn't start another tour until June 30, 1972 at Madison Square Garden, New York. That would leave open the possibility that Michael Jackson could have appeared at Wrigley the week before on June 23, 1972.

I honestly don't think that's Michael Jackson at all. But be that as it may, does anyone know who the guy is holding that boy? Man, he looks familiar, but I can't place it. Seems like he may have a large championship(?) ring on his right hand.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

The YouTube link below is from 1972 and it shows Michael Jackson who appears to be much taller than the child in the original photo.
