After looking more closely at my stack of mystery photos, it looks like there are really only four or five different games that the photos come from, in just two different ballparks.
That's not going to make this game much of a challenge. So I'm going to ask for some help. If any of you have some old photos lying around of MLB games, that you either (a) don't know the who/what/when of the photo, or (b) you know, but think it would make a fun challenge for others to figure out, please email them in to me at this email address:

I only want your own personal photos, that I would have the rights to publish. Please don't send me copyrighted material.
Thanks!

I think the only problem would be that most of those pictures would be digital photos of recent vintage. I'm hoping people have some old photos they have or are willing to scan, and send in. It's a bit more of a challenge when the year of the photo is a bit more random.
