        It's almost 10pm and they're only in the 6th inning. Sounds like today.

        Look at the mound and plate area. It looks like some drying compound was laid down. I'm betting there was a rain delay.

        In 1957, that massive scoreboard must've seemed like the 8th wonder of the world.

        The scoreboard is amazing and confusing. The score to the right indicates 4-3 White Sox but the individual runs indicate 2-1 White Sox.

        Those are hits. Ppl used to be better at math & didn’t need the totals.

        Looks like Billy Pierce is the pitcher and Sherm Lollar the catcher for the @WhiteSox.

        Would love to find a copy of that picture! Huge white sox fan, but I love reading about Ted. May have been the best hitter ever.

        August 23, 1957. Ted Williams went on to strike out on that at bat. Billy Pierce & the White Sox won 4-1.

        Most photos of paradise are daytime photos. It's good to see a nighttime photo of paradise.
