Yogi Berra was the manager. Robinson didn't play third in the game - he was coming off knee replacement surgery which matches with the photo. Brooks played right field - where he allowed an inside-the-park home run.
Thanks for the GREAT detective work and photo!! Would this have been by chance Brooksie's last on the field GAME in a uniform?
