Chris:

I ran across this photo in an old Phillies scrapbook I had not look at in years. The below photo was taken at a Phillies Oldtimers game in 1951.

While it appears to me it is not from the same year as your photo, looking at the players ID'ed in it I would venture to guess the player to the left in your photo is the same as the one to left in my photo Rube Walberg.

The gray haired player in the A's uniform in the center is Howard Ehmke, I thought he could the player third from the left in your photo. However Ehmke was a right hander and the guy in your photos appears to be a lefty, unless he just picked up a glove.

What do you think? Is the guy on the left Walberg and is Ehmke in your photo?
