Also said that the reason they gave him a clock was that he was "accused of taking naps between innings and the alarm clock is supposed to wake him up in time for the next inning."

Hi Jonathan,
Just curious the clock pictured seems to have the sweep or small hand where the clock you have doesnt. Also the names on the dials top and bottom look to also be a little different. Is that the case?
