Love the pics. I hate to do this, but it doesn't look like Earl with Boog. Could that be 1st base coach Jim Frey #41? Sorry to question but just wondering.

I was thinking the same thing, but that does look like a side profile of Earl's nose. Hard to tell. A strained face looks much different then one at rest.

That guy also seems to be a lot taller than Weaver. I can't imagine Weaver towering over anyone like that guy is over the ump.
Yeah, that doesn't look like Earl. My memory ain't what it used to be, but wasn't there a 1st base coach by the name of Geoarge Stahler or something like that.
On another note, it's interesting to see a picture of Brooks before he started getting a little chubby.
I might have impressed myself.

I don't think it's Weaver but the Ump appears to be down on one knee.
