Ron Santo Throwing to First Base


Description

A color slide of Ron Santo completing a throw across the diamond from the infield grass in front of third base. Santo is in profile with his right side visible as he leaps in the air. His right arm is fully extended as he completes his throw to first base. He is wearing a Chicago Cubs home uniform, and based on the belt style, the photograph was taken in 1972 or 1973. The background shows the outfield grass and the ivy on the outfield wall of Wrigley Field.
