1986 Spokane Indians at the Mall - Craig Cooper

  

It was hard to tell for many businesses what store the photo was taken at for their card. Not so for Pizzabella - whether it was luck or foresight, their name was written on a piece of paper on the back of the cash register (or drink machine)? I really like the Pepsi menu board too. It's been fun seeing the classic logo come back lately.

First baseman Craig Cooper played seven seasons in the Padres, Brewers and Indians organizations, reaching as high as AAA. In 599 games he hit .271 with 51 HR and 348 RBI. He is now an instructor at the West Florida Baseball Academy.

  1. I've always been a Coke guy... but gotta admit, I've always liked that Pepsi logo.

  2. Seems like this about fifth or sixth guy you've mentioned in recent months whose teaching at a baseball academy. I had no idea that there were so many of such places.
