Thanks so much, Randy.

I wish someone in Cincinnati had taken such a series of pictures when Crosley came down.

One of the more overlooked losses in baseball, I think.

Yes, great find, thanks for sharing it.

Re: For all you fans of old ballparks.........

Well done. I love the format of this, and especially enjoyed the Philly parks. Someone should go take some current shots on Western Avenue, and do a similar thing with Crosley. There's some good stuff at 'where's Crosely now', but I think the before/after shots on this site are very effective.

Wait, there are more? All I saw was Comiskey. How do you get there?

Lots of old parks. I especially enjoyed the long slideshow on Connie Mack and the Baker Bowl, which were only 5 blocks apart.

Thanks for posting this, Randy!
