A young boy sits in the rain with an umbrella and a little dog, outside the locked and boarded-up entrance to the “25 cent seats” labeled “Opening Day April 10th Pink Socks vs Green Socks.” The boy has a “Base Ball Guide” in his coat pocket and there is a small basket of food on the ground, at his feet. Caption: “Cheer up, Towse! Only got about a week more to wait!”
