A bit of a stretch, but you can see the Budweiser sign on the undamaged outfield wall after the Russwood Park stands burned spectacularly down the night before. Rocky Colavito hit the last ever home run, in the last ever game, White Sox vs Indians, April 16th, 1960. Everybody who was anybody in baseball played at Russwood at one time or another before it burned down, including Ruth, Gehrig, Foxx, DiMaggio, Ted Williams, etc. As you can see, the field was undamaged. In fact, the Chicks practiced on it before moving to a modified football field for their last season of 1960. Then the Southern Association itself folded the next year. Russwood was uniquely shaped field, due to property boundaries, and yes, the Memphis Steam Laundry water tank was in play, complete with a "Hit The Smokestack Win $1000" sign. Supposedly no one ever did (425 feet from home plate) but Atlanta Cracker Eddie Matthews came closet, missing it by 10 feet.
