I looked through Marc Okonnen's baseball uniform book for clues about the fielder and the AL teams that wore socks with that pattern between '55-'60 seem to be Boston and Baltimore. I don't think he's a Red Sox since the only players to wear 17 during those years were pitchers. Maybe the wheel play was on and Carrasquel was covering?

Walt Dropo played a couple games at third for the Orioles in '59 and '60, and wore No. 17. The guy sliding looks a bit like Bob Cerv, who played for the A's in '59 and early 1960.

Chris,
I don't think that is Walt Dropo, Dropo was a lot beefier then that #17 in the photo. Darner I thought it may have been some sort of wheel play and it could be. #17 has his foot placed as if a force play and appears to be reaching out for the ball. So it could very well be the SS making the play.

I went back and took a look to see what SS wore #17 during the years of 1955 - 1960, not a one. Carrasquel was the only one. I remember Chico as a SS much more then a Third Baseman.
Another possibility is this is a spring training game, and KC may be playing a NL team.

Could it have been a Minor League Game...if so it could be a needle in a haystack.
