Cecilio (Cy) Acosta 1972 (in 1975)
The portrait has been loose in the wild for awhile - but clearly a copy of a copy of a rough copy. The pitching pose is new to me.
The closer of the '73 White Sox and then like most relievers in those days, completely ineffective and back in the minors in '74, Acosta was sold to the Phils during Spring Training '75 and actually got their first save of the season (and pitched three games at Wrigley) before going to the minors in early May. He pitched in the Mexican League until 1984.
