Need help trying to ID photos
 
My boss found these at an antique shop. They all say 1964 and Al Jackson is named on the first one. I think the second one could be Kranepool but I'm stumped on the 3rd. Thoughts? At work so can't scan them until later.

It's blurry, so that would be my out, but don't believe that's Kranepool. It actually looks more like Ron Swoboda, who appears in 1964 Spring Training team shots,
but your shots are from Shea and I don't believe he was on the roster until 1965?

Any idea when "1964" was written on the pictures? Is there a chance they're from a year (or two) later?

Here are the scans I promised

Yeah I know that because of the info on the back. It's the other two I need help with.

Thanks!

Still odd that Swoboda would be there as he was in the minors. Maybe he was receiving an award that day?

Of course only guessing ,JollyElm mentioned Swoboda and he did have his sideburns chopped off back then .
The blurry picture fella looks like (might) have the Lee Marvin Ron Hunt jowls and possibly the cap is pulled down like Ron Hunt did
