Many years ago a reader sent me this old photograph that he identified as having been taken by a friend at an exhibition game between the New York Yankees, the team Babe Ruth joined in 1920, and the Toronto Maple Leafs. Back then all Leaf ball games were played across the Bay at Hanlan's Point stadium. This continued until the 1926 season when the Toronto team moved to its new stadium at the foot of Bathurst St. While the reader couldn't recall the exact year his friend snapped the photo he was certain that he was told that was Babe Ruth at third base. Note the bleachers in the stadium's right outfield. The importance of those seats is described in the accompanying text.
