George Sisler Base Running photograph

Dateprobably 1928

DescriptionA black-and-white photograph of George Sisler captured rounding the bases. Sisler has his left foot tagging the bag as he prepares to head to the next base. He has a strained expression on his face. He is dressed in a Washington Senators road uniform. Advertisements line the stadium wall in the background. A baseball glove is visible on the sideline of the field. Based on Sisler's uniform and his time with the Senators, this photograph was probably taken in 1928.
