I wonder what ballpark that is.

hard to say.. Is that the home or road uniform? I think the Giants played in the Polo Grounds then, but there was some kind of fire and they played in Hilltop Park nearby for part of that era. Then of course, it could be at any road stadium.

Amazing photo. Historic baseball is so damn romantic.

This looks like batting practice picture taken at the Polo Grounds. The stadium structure burned on April 14, 1911. However it was fortunate that the outfield seats were a seperate structure so they survived. Enough of the horshoe shaped foul-line to foul-line, including the full lower deck, had been rebuilt by June 28, 1911, and games resumed there on that date. The upper deck was still being constructed, but was ready for crowds by the start of the World Series (October 14, 1911 that year).

Hello! We'd love you to add this photo to the National Maritime Museum's group Travellers' Tails. www.flickr.com/groups/nmm_travellers/rules/ This group has been set up to collate photographic responses to the exhibition The Art and Science of Exploration: 1768-80 at the National Maritime Museum and touring to the Grant Museum of Zoology, the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, the Hunterian Museum and Horniman Museum and Gardens. The exhibition aims to explore Captain Cook’s voyages of discovery, as well as the exchange of ideas and experiences around travel and exploration and investigate key questions around the history of art, science and exploration and what this means today, drawing on George Stubbs’ Enlightenment era paintings of a kangaroo and dingo, recently acquired by the National Maritime Museum. We’d love to see your photographs - please help us build a gallery of images to enrich the group! Thanks! www.flickr.com/groups/nmm_travellers/rules/
