Originating from Jim Bottomley's personal estate, this famous photo shows the Hall of Fame slugger milking his cow, named "Fielder's Choice." Having bought a farm to retire to when his baseball career was over, it was no surprise that when asked what he would like as a fan appreciation gift, he responded "a cow." And that's exactly what he got as the team brought the bovine onto the field before a mid-August game against the Indians. Featured in this original photo is "Sunny Jim" showing how it's done on the farm with teammates watching. The photo is signed," Mr. Kukoff, Very Best Wishes From Fielder's Choice and Jim Bottomley."
