1974 Evansville Triplets team photo price drop
Hi Boys and Girls, I have a 1974 Triplets photo that I would like to sell. The photo measures approximately 5 1/2" x 8 1/2". The back has some writing and some some white out where someone tried to obliterate the price.

Cool photo! Bobby Molinaro was one of my favorite players back then. Used to listen to a lot of their games on the radio. I can remember about half of those players. A little more familiar with the '75 - '78 teams, but '74-'75 is about as far back as my memory can go. I would have been 6 in 1974!

Triplets
I wonder where the name "Triplets" came from?

In order to select a name for the new franchise, a contest was held and a $500 savings certificate was offered to whoever gave the best name for the team; the name Evansville Triplets was selected from over 3,000 entries. (Fittingly, "Triplets" was appropriate for three reasons: the team would play Triple-A ball; the name was a play on Twins, for whom Evansville would serve as its top affiliate; and the fact that the name would represent not just Indiana, but the tri-state area, including Kentucky and Illinois Last edited by rsdill2; 04-25-2018 at 01:25 PM.

This is freakin awesome! I'm from Evansville originally and have a ticket stub signed by Jim Leyland when he was manager. Do you (or anyone else) have any other Tripletts collectibles?

Thanks, Robert - that is interesting!
Hi Mike, I don't have any other Tripletts items. Rick
