Is this Dodgertown?
Yes! March 7, 1973 according to Topps.
His 1974 Topps card looks like it was probably taken at the same time. (His 1975 Hostess card uses the same photo.)
His 1973 and 1975 Topps cards also show him on what looks like the same field in the same uniform with stripes on the sleeves, but they appear to be in somewhat different parts of the same field. I probably shouldn't try to overthink it.
On March 7, the Dodgers played an intrasquad game managed by two coaches. The Lasordas beat the Gilliams, 2-0. Who pitched a scoreless seventh inning to earn the save? Tommy Lasorda, the 45-year-old first year pitching coach.
In other news, Bangladesh held it's first ever national elections, Netherlands Prime Minister Barend Biesheuvel resigned, and New York City Mayor John Lindsay announced that he would not run for re-election.
