I don't know why someone tagged this Ebbetts Field. From the date on the photo, this would be from the homestand being played by the Giants at the Polo Grounds against Brooklyn. Mathewson started the May 4th, 1914 game. www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1914/VNY101914.htm

Art Siegel This is Ebbets Field, the dates on the photographic glass negatives do not necessarily correspond to the date the photos were actually taken. Compare the fence along the 3rd base side field level seats, the dugout (and the unique cutout at its bottom), and the open area behind the first deck of seats, to other photos of Ebbets Field in the Bain photostream, among others, and you will see that this is the recently opened Ebbets Field.

Aha, I see that. Must have been from an earlier Giants-Dodgers game in Brooklyn.

Christy Mathewson has been my favorite baseball player ever since I read a biography of him when I was a teenager. I love that you have a picture of him on flickr.
