William R. "Lefty" Bell, Jr. was a pitcher with the Kansas City Monarchs and Birmingham Black Barons during the 1949-54 period. He is shown on the left in street clothes, wearing a Minnesota Twins cap. Bell was drafted by the Twins in MLB's honorary draft in 2008. On the right is an obit photo showing him as a younger man. That photo is from SABR's Negro Leagues Research Committee Newsletter of June, 2021. He died on March 6, 2021 in Des Moines, IA.
