Default Marvin Newman Slide Transparencies

I just couldn't pass up on a few of Marvin Newman's slide transparencies, which arrived in the mail today. Nothing compared to the Mantle's and others I've seen posted here so far ... but I'm happy with them none the less. I think Newman's color photography is outstanding! Anyway ... now I'm going to start trying to identify some of the slide shooting dates (that's part of the fun of it for me ;-) This shot of George Scott (Tim McCarver the catcher ... Elston Howard on deck, watching ... Al Barlick the ump ... looks like Red Schoendienst in the Cards dugout) should be the 6th inning of World Series Game 2 Played on Thursday, October 5, 1967 (D) at Fenway Park. Ron Willis is the Cardinal pitcher backing up third base on a sac fly by Rico Petrocelli that scored Scott from third, and Reggie Smith tagged from second base to third (which is why Willis is backing up third base). Bosox won 5-0. Pretty sure that's right ... per Retrosheet ... but feel free to correct me:
