This might be my favorite photograph of all time (I linked a good writeup on the backstory.) @LARRYDAVID's recent post about baseball reminded me of it, but I think about it often. It's such a striking encapsulation of a particular place and time and provides an entire social commentary in one image. I don't watch baseball anymore, but it tugs at my heartstrings just remembering how much I loved watching it as a kid in the 90s. It makes me emotional every time I see it. I have been trying to find a way to get a print of it for years, but the links for the photographer's site don't exist anymore, and the article insinuates the original newspaper it appeared in owned the rights anyway. Here it is in low res digital form anyhow - it's still pretty magical to me!
