Sunday is wearing a blank baseball uniform and appears to be laughing while looking at the camera. Ruth is wearing a baseball uniform and a Boston Red Sox team jacket. He is leaning on the knob end of a baseball bat with his right hand and has his left hand on his hip. He looks to his right toward Barrow. Behind them is a backstop made of netting for batting practice.
