Who: Pitcher Ed Sprague
Team: Cincinnati Reds
Card: 1972 Topps
Acquired: TTM 2/1 9/8/2009 (12 days)
Comments: This photo of Ed is kinda creepy, don't you think? Poor guy. Heck, the horizon line in the background has some issues too. Did the earth have an odd tilt to it in 1972?
Ed's had an interesting life in baseball. He never played ball at any level in school, but was instead scouted out of the army while playing in Germany. He's also owned a couple of minor league baseball teams. His son, Ed Sprague Jr., played in the pros as well. Here are all the deats on that.
Another '72 Topps in the bag for the project. We're cookin' now!
