Cake or gum? 1977 Butch Wynegar

Last time it was a 4-0 win for Topps. Will Hostess get votes here?

Judging by the background these photos look to have been taken at the same time, but differences in the way the photos were lit or developed make the Hostess card seem much darker, and makes Wynegar's uniform much bluer there.

Wynegar was an excellent fielding catcher with a little bit of pop in his bat. In 1976 he was the youngest ever All-Star (20 years, 212 days), and finished behind just Mark Fidrych in the Rookie of the Year voting. He was solid for a while in Minnesota, but after starting the 1982 season hitting .209, he was traded to the Yankees. Wynegar did not adapt well to the stresses of playing in the Bronx, and left the team in mid-season 1986. He returned to baseball for the Angels, retiring in 1988. Overall he hit .255 with 65 HR and 506 RBI in 1,301 games. Wynegar stayed in baseball after his playing days, coaching for various minor league teams, and appears to now be retired.
