This time, Getty Images’ information was pretty generic:
Tommy Helms #19 of the Houston Astros in action against the Chicago Cubs during an Major League Baseball game circa 1972 at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois. Helms played for the Astros from 1972-75.
All true. As a student of Cubs history I know — and you probably do too if you’ve studied Cubs past — that’s Rick Monday trying to break up the play at second base. Helms, who was acquired by Houston in the November 1971 deal that sent Joe Morgan to the Reds — a particularly bad deal for the Astros — was Houston’s fulltime second baseman in 1972, 1973 and 1974, not playing any other positions.
