I'm just giving props for the effort for actually thinking about camera angles, composition, capturing different game situations, and playing with depth-of-field (slightly out of focus foreground/in focus background). It's the fist time I saw that with baseball card photography was the point I was trying to make.
That makes sense to me... I'm probably spoiled by the Conlon photography (the Cobb sliding shot comes to mind) of dynamic photography...

Maybe I'll take a look at the '73 set again...

Cheers!
