Mickey Cochrane and Rudy York on Dugout Steps
Description
A slide of a black-and-white photograph of Rudy York (left) and Mickey Cochrane (right). Both are standing with their left foot on the top dugout step at Navin Field in Detroit. They are wearing Detroit Tiger home uniforms. York is wearing a catcher's glove on his left hand and has his right hand hidden from view in the palm of the glove. He is looking at his glove and smiling broadly. Cochrane is wearing a fielder's glove on his left hand, which is resting on his left leg. His right arm crosses over his left, and he looks at York and smiles broadly. A white stripe is visible on their socks, indicating the picture is from 1937. York took over as the starting catcher for the Tigers in 1937.
