Steve I realize this image has been ping-pong'd ad nauseum throughout this board's history. Anything definitive or new discoveries learned in regards to this picture.
We know Speaker played in the Texas and Sally leagues as a youngin' and called up to play (poorly) a few ML games in between. I've had no luck finding examples of his Minor teams uniforms... Any images out there, of Boston's prospects/rookie camps from this era (1907-1909)?
I reckon this port. shows a partial uniform of young Tris in his minor uni and helps the case that this is he at bat. The very large stadium is a tough one to figure as it doesn't resemble Huntington Ave Gds. I do believe the Sox held ST in Arkansas around this era.
Anyone new notions on this image?
