It makes sense the players would be in away unis if they were playing a split squad game.<br /><br />We made it down to Clearwater a few years ago, and the practice facilities are all within close proximity to the new stadium. We'll go back one day . . .<br /><br />I'm going to try to hunt down a 1978 Spring Training program to try to figure out who these guys are.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161762602291616465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433941530167569659.post-38202829367452509352009-09-16T18:42:10.878-04:002009-09-16T18:42:10.878-04:00Well I am fairly certain the first pix was taken a...Well I am fairly certain the first pix was taken at the practice facility. I have been there a couple of times but it has been several years. Jack Russell stadium (latter photo - where the Phils would have played back then) is not located in that area. - I haven't been to the new stadium but from what I understand it is now next to the practice facility. I was there about 4 or 5 years ago and the Practice facility looks a lot the same today - workouts there take place early and perhaps the players were playing an intrasquad game - thus the different unis or were dressed to go to split squad games following the workouts.dealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04633750324558738343noreply@blogger.com
