Pitchers shown on cards Batting
Posted By: <b>Bobby Binder</b><p>there are not many cards on Pitcher primarily shown with a bat in his hands and not on the mound or in the motion. Not including the Babe of course in his earlier cards.<br />I will start with this E93 Cy Young<br /><br /><img src="http://www.vintagecardprices.com/pics/47248.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred (Fred)</b><p>Here's Caruthers in an at bat pose. He's probably most well known as a great 19th century pitcher but he wasn't bad with a bat. He had a .282 lifetime batting average with two pretty good back to back seasons at bat: he was fourth in batting in 1886 with a .334 average and fifth in batting in 1887 with a .357 (American Association)<br /><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1172261303.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>Another 19th Century example - Ed "Cannoball" Morris. <br /><br />Why Goodwin pictured him batting is beyond me, since unlike his contemporary, Mr. Caruthers, Ed Morris was <b>awful</b> with the stick, having a paltry .161 lifetime batting average.<br /><br /><img src="http://members.aol.com/kkkkandp/morris_fr.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>Pitchers in batting poses were fairly common in N172. The V100 Red Faber also shows him batting. If I remember correctly, Jim Kaat's 1973 Topps card shows him batting. The AL adopted the DH in '73, but the photo is obviously from '72 or before.
