American actors Frank Sinatra (1915 - 1998) and Ava Gardner (1922 - 1990) pose with a sign that reads, 'Sinatra Swooners Bat Girl,' July 12, 1949. Gardner holds a baseball bat over her shoulder while Sinatra holds the sign up to her back. The Swooners were Sinatra's charity baseball team, which was made up of MGM contract players.
