Content description:
This is a photographic negative of the Oakland Oaks baseball team during a game. The photo shows a player coming into the dugout and receiving congratulations from about five players. Each of the players have their hands out to congratulate him. Apparently the player scored somehow - possibly on a home run. The bat boy is in the background of the picture near the center and the fans in the stands are clapping their hands for the team. The first base side and the grand stand is the shot here. The catcher's shin guards are at the bottom center of the photo.
