Some boys are wearing baseball caps and mitts. Bleachers are visible in the left rear of the photo. Johnny Lindell grew up in Arcadia in the 1930s, went to Monrovia-Arcadia-Duarte High School and USC, before being signed by the Yankees. He was both a pitcher and outfielder, and played several years in the 1950s for the Hollywood Stars of the Pacific Coast League.
