Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>That does look like Fatty Arbuckle, who was actively involved in baseball.<br /><br />And as Fatty always liked to say: "Things go better with Coke."

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>It may look like him, but it's not....as far as I know Fatty's only involvement with baseball was with the Vernon Tigers in 1919 and even then he only bought the team to please his manager Lou Anger whose sister-in-law was the wife of one of the Vernon players.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>He could have posed with any team since he was a huge celebrity at the time. It does resemble him, but I agree it may not be. And he probably would be clowning around, and not be that serious.

Posted By: <b>Ryan Christoff</b><p>Next to Fatty is Buck Weaver, second from left. Next to him is definitely Ty Cobb. Far left in the second row is Jim Thorpe. I think the batboy is Josh Gibson, but it also might be Joe Jackson. <br /><br />Let's give Fatty a break, though. Who among us hasn't had a coked out night filled with fun and adventure that included a dead starlet or two? Who, I ask you?!<br /><br />-Ryan<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Sorry Fred, this is a family board <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Fatty was one of the most successful stars in Hollywood up until 1921, but after the scandal he was pretty much done.

Posted By: <b>Max Weder</b><p>Actually, the player between Fatty and Ty Cobb looks a lot like a TV supporting actor who plays a lawyer in a current show, and whose name simply escapes me. Does anybody else see it, or have a picture of that actor?
