I voted no. The only thing that is similar in those pictures is that the back row is standing and the front row isn't. There is absolutely nothing in that picture that is baseball related.

So their prison uniforms were baseball uniforms? Were the wardens dressed as umpires...! It's like the "Longest Yard" but on the diamond.

Getty says yes -

http://www.gettyimages.in/detail/new...re-id528122060

correction: Whoops, on my screen this is on top with the other one. I looked up the wrong one. I think the other is just a photo of lifers, not a team.

So theres no equipment and no obvious uniform like the other pc, i vote no.

Could it b a beseball team that took a pic with not 1 player having his glove or bat or uniform? Sure... but then why take a baseball picture?

There are a couple examples on the net of this card I saw. This link looks just like this one.

http://picclick.ca/Real-Photo-Postca...479476408.html

I find it interesting that the sender writes quite a bit about their prison visit and the only note about the card is in the upper left corner that says "this bunch is in for life". This lends more to me believing these are just prisoners.
