Yeah I think its a Baseball team as well. No sure why a RPPC would be taken of 9 random lifers if not.

Yes, like the above posters, the combination of uniforms, baseball like pants with knee sox, baseball hats, 9 players (not 5 for a basketball team, not 11 for a football team). And the fact that these guys all look like ballplayers - about the right age and stature - no fatties or old men.
As far as the equipment goes, I'd guess that those guys didn't just have their gloves and bats available all the time and that the equipment was probably locked up when this photo was taken.

Look at it from this stand point - why else would there be NINE guys clearly dressed like baseball players?
Definitely baseball. Rob M P.S. Lifers don't get access to weapons like bats and balls when the photographer visits. The other two photos didn't indicate that those guys were lifers. Last edited by ramram; 01-30-2017 at 08:33 PM. |

Baseball team? No way. Who would they play? Think they're going to let a prison team travel for games - especially lifers?

They certainly would have "Home Field" Advantage.
I can also see why you might not want to give them bats for the picture. Patrick |

They have an endless supply of relief pitchers in the "pen".
