1983 Fleer – Pete Falcone
I think Pete Falcone, starter/reliever extraordinaire, was just being modest by not letting his beard and his chest hair connect. He easily could have let the neck hair grow out to let that happen, but he didn’t want to seem arrogant about it. You can see that the beard wants to touch the chest hair, and the chest hair wants to touch the beard. Pete Falcone, however, would have none of that. He’d just let them tease each other from afar.
He looks a little like Rick Aguilera if he had let himself go. Rick Aguilera always had the beard, but he kept it trimmed pretty neat.
Completely agree… never noticed that. Too bad they never played together, or Aguilera could have helped him out with his image.
