Nice picture! I remember my dad taking me to see the Hollywood Stars play at Gilmore Field in 1953. We went at least 3 times every season from 1953-1957. I remember the boys hanging out outside the park to catch foul balls that came back over the backstop at home base. Dale Long became my favorite player and once he came to visit our little league team . We corresponded late in his life and he sent me some nice items from his playing days --great guy !! Thanks for bringing up nice memories.
