 This rare 1949 photo of Chuck Connors, famous baseball player & television star, photo taking a movie of another player while playing baseball during his stint in the Cuban winter league predates his "Rifleman" TV days, when the Dodger farmhand was on the Almendares team stocked with players from the Negro league's New York Cubans and Dodgers like Sandy Amoros, Sam Jethroe and Al Gionfriddo.
