Content description:
This is a photographic negative of two Oakland Oaks and a woman in between them. The two players are on either side of the woman and are bending over holding their Louisville slugger bats in front of the woman like as if they were going to bunt. The woman is holding both of the bats so they come together at the end and she is looking at the player to the right of her. They are standing on the field near the fence that separates the field from the stands. In the stands a woman can be seen behind and just to the left of the Oak player on the left in the photo. The two players are in uniform and the woman is wearing a dress.
