Johnny Lucas

(I have not confirmed that this is the same Johnny Lucas in the photo of the 1926 Grand Rapids Body Co.)
From Wikipedia.com:

John Charles Lucas [Buster]
(February 10, 1903 – October 31, 1970) was a backup outfielder who
played briefly for the Boston Red Sox in the 1931-32seasons. Listed at 5 ft 10 in (1.78 m), 186 lb., Lucas batted right-handed and threw left-handed, a fairly unusual combination. He was born in Glen Carbon, Illinois.
In a four-game career, Lucas went hitless in three at bats. He did not have fielding chances in two outfield appearances.
Lucas died in Maryville, Illinois at age 67.
