Need help again identifying photo
Since you guys did such a great job last time, I have another one for you.
This photo was taken at an All-Star game. I am trying to identify the players and the year the game was played. The first player looks a little like Rizutto. Thanks!

Ernie Lombardi, second from left.
Lombardi was an all-star with Cincinnati, in 1938, 39 and '40. So, it has to be one of those years. Not Rizzuto. Maybe Crosetti? Last edited by brickyardkennedy; 01-14-2010 at 04:09 PM.

Are you sure it wasn't taken during the 1939 World Series (Reds v. Yanks)?
edited to add: That could make the Red with the first baseman's glove Frank McCormick. I lack photo ID skills, but to my admittedly untrained eye it looks like him. Last edited by Anthony S.; 01-14-2010 at 04:09 PM.

I believe the photo is from 1939 (note arm patches) and it is McCormick

Since Lombardi played with the Reds during that time period. This narrows it down to 1936, 1937,1938,1939,1940.
They are wearing patches on their left arm that looks like All Star patches.

Todd, you are right. The bands say 1939. I agree with you that the third player is Frank McCormick.
Does the 4th player looks like Dickey?

All Star Game was held at Yankee Stadium in 1939 so maybe ASG, maybe WS. Patches are probably Centennial patches. Crosetti, Lombardi, McCormick (cf. his 1939 Playball at vcp.com), working on #4.

If you believe it's from an all-star game, then it couldn't have been '36 or '37, as Lombardi was not an all-star in those years.
OK, Lombardi WAS an all-star, in those years. Just didn't play. Sorry. Last edited by brickyardkennedy; 01-14-2010 at 05:02 PM. Reason: Historical Inaccuracy.
