The Alvarado picture was almost certainly taken at the White Sox spring training in 1972 in Sarasota FL. There's a palm tree in the top right, and the player playing catch with Alvarado is Jorge Orta, who is shown wearing #38 on his 1973 Topps #194 card even though he wore #6 in the regular season - Phil Regan wore #38 in 1972.
