Most views of a major-league baseball game are as traditional as the game itself, the cameramen sidelined in pens next to the dugouts. To see the game from some new angles, Mike Escamilla, a photographer and an athlete, went to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ spring-training camp in Glendale, Ariz., and mounted cameras to players’ bats, umpires’ chests, catchers’ face masks and even remote-controlled drones. Some players, who tend to be skittish and superstitious even by the standards of professional athletes, were reluctant to take part. “Getting close to the players on the field was clearly not something photographers did, but after some slow introductions, a few players agreed to help us out,” Escamilla says. “Once we showed them the photos, they were like, ‘Wow, this is rad.’ ” Julie Bosman
