Something weird going on with Russell's eyebrow.
Russell went 1-for-4 in the Dodgers' 4-2loss to the Mets. Their old nemesis Willie Mays was still a thorn in their side at the age of 42; walking and scoring the Mets' first run in the first, then breaking a 2-2 tie with a home run in the third inning.
In other news, less than 20 miles from Shea Stadium, Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes to become the first triple crown winner since 1948. In Spain, General Francisco Franco relinquished control of the cabinet and named Admiral Luis Carrero as Prime Minister. It would be a short run for Carrero, who would be assassinated in December.
His 1974 Topps Stamp photo appears to have been taken at the same time. He's got the same thing on his eyebrow here. Maybe stitches? I can't find it in any other photos of Russell from this time.
