Photograph caption date stamped August 15, 1962 reads, "'Now gentlemen, please!' - Umpire Nestor Chylak takes a moment out from last night's second game between the Los Angeles Angels and the Boston Red Sox to explain the rules and regulations of professional baseball to the Red Sox' first-baseman Pete Runnels and coach Billy Herman. It seems that Runnels felt positive that the was safe after sliding into third base in the first inning, but after a brief debate, Chylak convinced the two men that he was, after all, quite correct."
