Update 4-25-2025
Last hint and did you miss....
So far, after three months of “Mystery Photos,” no one has guessed correctly. Of course, that is the idea. If it were easy, it would not be a mystery.
Below is April’s original photograph and an individual photo of each baseball-related subject in the photo. Come on now!f
WE HAVE A WINNER: As expected, about a dozen of you knew Morganna and were willing to admit it. The regionally famous Kenny Nichols was the first to name Travs manager Sonny Ruberto.
No, it is not Bo Belinsky. I wish it were. Bo’s story is much more interesting.
If you missed a short version of Bo, former Traveler and month-long big-league superstar, the strange tale was in this week’s post. Also in this week’s Backroads and Ballplayers #102 is a recap of the amazing Aprils of Arkansas’ Lon Warneke.
This week’s post was delayed until Tuesday, but about 400 readers found it in the first 48 hours. Thanks!
