Hey Curt,
Yeah, it is a little awkward, isn't it? Some hitters back then really leaned in from their waist. But this doesn't appear to be what's happening here. It's like he's bending over...from the toes, lol. I don't know what happened with this photo. I wouldn't put accidental airbrushing past Topps. I mean, they flipped him and made him a lefty, I wouldn't be surprised if they chopped off a leg, too, to mess with us.
