I'm not expert on New York Giants uniforms, but I think the painter Topps employed may have got the colors wrong on this card. They look a little Brooklyn Dodger blue to me. Clint is one of those rare breeds who made the position switch from pitcher to outfield. He was a pitcher from 1947-50, then stuck around two more seasons as strictly a reserve outfielder. I appreciate players like that. There's nothing worse than a pitcher who doesn't like to hit, even if they can't, they should at least enjoy the chance.
