Cake or gum? 1976 Steve Braun

Last time cake won a close one, 4-3. Who will win here?

Looks like two photos that were taken at the same time. Braun was probably standing still while the photographer moved around him.

Outfielder Steve Braun came up with the Twins in 1971 and was a regular for them until being selected by the Mariners in the 1977 expansion draft. Braun spent a year and a half in Seattle before moving on to the second part of his career, as a pinch-hitter extraordinaire for the Royals, Blue Jays and Cardinals. In 1982 he helped the Cardinals win the World Series with an RBI hit and a bases-loaded walk. After his playing career he was a coach for a while, and also worked in the energy marketing industry. He is now retired.
