1910 Cleveland Naps;
Anybody want to take a crack at the year of this team pic? Looks like Nap Lajoie is there. So, probably a year when they were the Naps. Maybe the early teens?

This is a panoramic of the St Petersburg Saints in 1927. They were a minor league team that played from 1920 - 1928. They played in the Florida State League. Do you guys recognize any of these players?

Panoramic of the 27 Braves in St Petersburg, Florida. Hopefully you guys will know some names in this group. BS this will need some of your expert editing when you have time.

Can you guys tell me who you recognize in the dugout including the guy on the far right. He looks like another Eddie Bennett. Was he a mascot or is that just the way he is crouching?
