DescriptionA black-and-white blurry negative of an unidentified baseball player sliding into a base while an unidentified Brooklyn Dodgers player attempts to tag the sliding player out.

This negative is undated but based on when other images were taken on the same filmstrip, this may have been taken in 1940.
