Round 3 shifts to game in action photos.
Here is an interesting group of 5 images from same game at Detroit's Recreation Park. A couple of these images were previously known from the Detroit News archives and labeled as being from July 4th, 1887, however, the Detroit Historical Society has records suggesting it might be a home game from 1886. The Detroit pitcher would be southpaw Lady Baldwin who beat Boston 7-3 on July 4th 1887 or could have easily been captured in 1886 (Baldwin being league leader at 42-13). First three images show the visiting team at bat. Neat to study position of catcher, umpire, baseline captain, defense, Detroit's bench, base runners, etc. Looks like visiting team is scoring some runs.    The last two pictures show Detroit at bat, perhaps capturing moments before and after a three run homer (something that didn't occur on July 4th, 1887 game).   The images provide a rare and provide interesting view of 1880s baseball, game and stadium.
