Among the greatest nickname in all of sports history belongs to Manuel "Cocaina" Garcia. Whether he got his nickname because of his curve balls effect on hitters, or whether it was because the ball acted like it was on drugs, the result is the same, it's awesome! The offered ballpark portrait photograph looks great and is one of his best ever taken in uniform.
