Do we think this is in Pittsburgh? In which case it was taken on July 4, 1977. Other possibility is Philly - but I'd bet it's Three Rivers.

My wife's co-worker would DROOL if he saw this.

Hell..he and I are probably the only two people who know who Stubby Clapp is.

It's Pittsburgh. Three Rivers was 335 down the LF line. The Vet was 330. Plus the Vet didn't have a solid wall in LF.

To be honest, most fans couldn't tell the difference between Three Rivers, The Vet and Riverfront....hated those concrete ashtrays....

Oh, I didn't say I liked them. They were rubbish. It speaks volumes that we had to think about which one it was.

An acceptable glut. And on the late 70s Cardinal pitching front, now we just need you to pull a color pic of Tom Bruno out of your hat Merk......

The pic I posted was from a Google search of the Vet, yes. We were discussing Merkle's post of Tom Underwood and where it was shot. Which we're assuming is Three Rivers. I posted the picture of the Vet to rule it out.

Looking for something of George Scott and Rick Anderson - Thanks!

Does anyone have anything of these Jays from 1979?
Steve Luebber
Tony Solaita
Dyar Miller (other than the small, team-issue head shot previously posted?)

Merkle - I see that you previously posted images of Pedro Hernandez and Steve Grilli - would it be possible to see these re-posted? Understand either way.

Here is Pedro Hernandez. The images are of course from this site (Merkle).

At long last, the Vault spits forth, in its current eBay listings, an image of Keith Drumright as an Astro (2, actually)!

KJ853-854 is Luis DeLeon, *not* Jose DeLeon.

What an interesting find on the TV listings on Ebay today....Luis DeLeon with the Mariners where he pitched one game for them in 1989. It was the last game of his career as he started on May 26th at Milwaukee allowing 1 R in 4 IP with 2 K, 1 BB, and 5 H. The one run was a HR to Robin Yount in the first inning. It was the only start of DeLeon's career as he threw 206 other games all in relief.

DeLeon began his MLB career in 1981 with St. Louis but is mostly remembered for being a Padres RP from 1982-1985. He was a combined 15-11 for the 1982-1983 Padres saving 28 games while pitching in 124 games with an E.R.A of 2.37. He later pitched in 11 games for the 1987 Orioles, all in relief.

Trying to confirm what this seems to be -- a "phantom" photo of former Yankees pitcher Johnny Kucks during a failed spring trial with the Mets in 1963. His MLB career was already over, and he'd spent 1962 with the Cardinals' farm club in Atlanta. Failing to make the Mets, he was returned to the Cardinals, and Atlanta for the '63 season -- his last. Thanks.
