Jesse L. Barnes, identified here by the New York National League club, pitched for the New York Giants in the early 1920s, when the team was among the strongest in the league and played at the Polo Grounds. The picture is a glass negative from the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency that supplied newspapers with pictures of sports, theater, and public life. The caption data is unverified, so the exact occasion is unknown, but the image still shows how the agency recorded the city's ballplayers in 1922.
