Here's another father of a major leaguer. This is Ty Van Burkleo's dad.
Frank Van Burkleo was a noted athlete out of Southern California who signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates for a $40,000 bonus in the early 1950's. That was an enormous sum in those days. Frank was a non-roster invitee with the Pirates in 1952.
The photo is from the Pittsburgh Press of February 24, 1952. The other half of the photo shows George Sisler, who is giving him batting tips. The Pirates converted Dutch to a first baseman, which is the position he spent playing his minor league career.
