Mike Parrott 1977

I'm sorry, but I just don't trust that 1991 Crown Orioles picture of Parrott. It smells like a Seattle image, with a redone hat.

Fortunately, this picture from Parrott's page at the Ventura County (CA) Sports Hall of Fame seems to be the real Bird. albeit likely from Spring Training of that year:

Not in color and not head-on, but still an improvement, IMO. (I lightened the shadows and sharpened the pic a bit.)

Fun Fact: Parrott was the International League MVP before his September call-up. I didn't know that.

Also, while we're mentioning brief 1977 O's, I may as well ask if anybody has an Ed Farmer. Unlikely, with his only having one game for Baltimore (even Parrott had three), but it can't hurt to ask.

(I hope. If somebody beats me up for making the request, I'll be bummed.)
