Love that scoreboard shot. Those Newman transparencies are pretty great.

Haven't scored any myself. Logged in a few snipes that didn't even register.

Beautiful game action Phillies negative, Graig.

The pitcher is Pedro Ramos, and this is from the first game of a doubleheader played May 10, 1967, won by the Braves 7-2. Ironically, Ramos had just come into the game in relief following Wise (who had pitched a perfect 7th in his only inning of work) and saw his first pitch taken deep by Joe Torre, Torre's second tater of the game (Hank hit one too). Strangely, three pitches had been thrown to Carty but the scoreboard still had not registered Torre's run.

Edited to change: the game was the nightcap (obviously) of the doubleheader

Scott and Graig,

Quick check out the scoreboard showed Braves were playing the Phillies(only NL team not mentioned) and roster of Braves lineup narrowed year to 1967. John Boozerand Pedro Ramos both wore #28 for Phillies in "67, and on May 10, 1967, White Sox beat the Orioles 13-1. So there is your date.

Todd and Billy,

Thanks for identifying Pedro Ramos as the pitcher on the mound. Great detective work, BTW...
It's a beauty!

GREAT detective work, guys! Thanks for putting so much effort into it. To be honest, I didn't even give it much thought, as I was just in love with the image. I figured that finding a date for it would just be an added bonus.

And entrapment or no, I'm gonna paint the sh*t out of it!

Bravo!

Sounds messy!

Given that the thread had taken a 'negative' turn, I was grateful for Graig's 'transparency', but the posts have now gone to [censored].

I picked up what is supposedly a gone negative/slide scanner yesterday - looking forward to seeing what it does with stuff like this. Watch out, you acetate and glass collectors!

i tried to get that 1950 joplin pre-rookie Mantle photo with psa/dna letter.
Placed what i thought was a good bid, no way i thought it go over 500, indeed fetch around 710. Whomever got it, it was a nice a Mantle addition
