Cubs historical sleuthing: Another Shawon Dunston photo
Getty Images supplied the following information about this photo:
Shortstop Dave Anderson of the Los Angeles Dodgers (center) makes a play during a game against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois.
It’s good that they put (center) there because otherwise, how would we have known which guy was the Dodgers shortstop?
All right, sarcasm over, here are your clues.
It’s obviously Shawon Dunston sliding into second base. The Getty info says Anderson was playing shortstop that day. The Cubs uniform style tells us this is between 1985 (Dunston’s rookie year) and 1989 (the last year the Cubs wore the beltless pants).
