Detroit Tigers: Who’s safe at third?

Detroit Tigers, Safe at Third

Safe at Third, photo courtesy Library of Congress

The Library of Congress captioned this photo Detroit ball player slides safely into third base as fielder reaches to the left for ball on the ground during baseball game. It’s from a game between the Washington Senators and the Detroit Tigers sometime between 1910 and 1930, but beyond that, it’s one of the many photographic mysteries waiting to be solved.

Be sure to click through and check it out larger – that third base is amazingly tattered … sort of like our Detroit Tigers.
