Why do I know that? As a young Phillies fan at the time, I remembered such trivial matters.

What I WAS able to figure out is:<br /><br />1. the guy seated in the front row between Bowa and the batboy is Denny Doyle<br />2. Don Money is seated in the middle row, the 2nd player (3rd person) from the right<br />3. Deron Johnson is 2nd from left in the back row<br />4. Joe Hoerner is 3rd from right in the back row (next to Wise)<br /><br />Tim McCarver was on this team, but I don't see anyone that looks like him.Jim from Downingtownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01537007940455183397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72805078553416215.post-71822754209434451372014-03-04T22:06:15.613-05:002014-03-04T22:06:15.613-05:00Night Owl,

The coach on the other side of Lucchesi looks like George Myatt (although I don't know if he was with the 1970 team). I assume the men on the outboard side of those coaches are other coaches, as it was the Phillies' custom to put all the coaches in the front row, center.<br /><br />The guy in the red jacket is traveling secretary Eddie Ferenz.<br /><br />The player 4th from left in the back row with the big head is Chris Short. Next to him (3rd from left) I'm guessing is Jim Bunning (because of his height).<br /><br />The player seated 2nd from left in the middle row is Johnny Briggs. He wore #12 (you can see the "2" on his uniform). Plus, he was VERY dark.<br /><br />Jim from Downingtownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01537007940455183397noreply@blogger.com
