 Boston Red Sox Clubhouse, Vintage 1928!

My recent post from the 1912 New York Giants spring training workout showing them on what appears to be a cow pasture, got me thinking about other baseball facilities from bygone eras that – shall we say –are not quite up to modern standards.

Here’s a photo from the Boston Red Sox clubhouse in Fenway Park vintage 1928. Check out all the details of what a clubhouse from years ago actually looked like.  I believe that’s a cast iron furnace and the trainer, Bits Bierhalter, is taking out a “hot stone.” Must have been a cold day in Boston! Quite a contrast from today’s luxury clubhouses and lavish weightrooms.

I was able to identify Jack Russell sitting on the left, Charlie Berry standing and Danny MacFayden with the glasses (one of the very few ball players from this era to wear glasses).

I'm a baseball historian who also enjoys writing. My forte is identifying ballplayers in old photos, and my special interest is the Dead Ball Era.
