Our eighth mystery photo comes from the slide pile I bought. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help figure out the who/when/where of the photo.

And in this case, why. As in, why does one guy look like he's been in a fight, and why is the other guy laughing at him?

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:

mystery ATsign humbug  .com

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

Thanks!

Mystery Photo #1

On a recent travel adventure, I happened to wander into a "Recycle Store", a business which tries to take one person's junk and turn into someone else's treasure.

This store happened to have a huge barrelful of old, discarded slides and photo negatives. Turns out that most of these discarded pictures were of sporting events. Probably 95% of them were pictures of NCAA and NFL football games, but there were some baseball pictures in the pile, too.

So I gathered up as many baseball pictures as I could find, and bought a couple handfuls of the old photos.

None of these photos were marked in any way, so there's the game: let's try to identify who the people are in the photos, and figure out where and when the photo was taken.

Ready? Here's picture #1:
