This is a photographic negative of a baseball player running past a base during a game or practice. The teams playing are probably American Legion. The player running is in full stride with his right arm bent and up in front of his body. The player to his left has his glove on and in seemingly moving to his left to field. A few players are in the background and a fence behind them. Past the fence is a row of houses making this scene out to be a school playground.
