Both Torve and Gainey played in the majors briefly in the 1980s. Does anyone have photos of these two players from their major leagues or Japanese leagues playing days.
The Minnesota B&W is from Baseball-Birthdays. The posed batting shot is a Colla Postcard from the Trading Card Database. Not entirely sure where the action photo originated--I've had it for awhile--but its not too dissimilar from Kelvin's '91 Fleer card image, so I assume it was from that same shoot. Might be an AP thing. The Japanese card is from ebay.
