Need Help Identifying 1970's Oddball Baseball Items

Evening,
And thanks ahead of time. Picked these up in a lot of stuff, never seen before. I can scan and send if necessary, but don't know how to post pictures.
1. 45 Record, Fleetwood Recording Co., Title: Yankee Stadium The Sounds of a Half Century, narrated by Mel Allen, dates Yankee Stadiumn as built in 1927, so would be 1973. (2 Copies with Cardboard Dust Covers)
2. Slightly smaller than normal card (15 Each), appear to be perforated around outer edges so were punched out of something. Front: Black and White Pictured Players, Name on top in black Ink looks about 1972-1975. Players names are Stargell, Motton, Parker, Harper, Hickman, Savage, Taylor, Hargan, Brett, Campaneris, Hannon, Fuller, Bateman, Monday, and Marichal. Backs have list of Stats top to bottom numbered 1-12 on each one

Top Line Name of Player in Red
Line 1. Date of Birth Some Sort of Record
Line 2-12 Foul Out, Bunt Out, Single, Double, Triple....Ect.

Anything worth anything?

Thanks again
Neil

    #2 is either 1969 or 1972 Milton Bradley.

    To determine which it is, look on the back for a line of red type containing the numeral "1". If the "1" has a base, the card is 1972. If there is no base to the "1", it is from 1969.

    Both sets were designed for use with a baseball table game. The Willie Stargell cards are the most valuable of the ones you listed, each with a NM value of $9-$10 in the 2007 Standard Catalog. Marichal is $7.50-$8.

    The Yankee Stadium 45rpm record was given out to all fans at one of the last home games before the renovation after the 1973 season. I went to the game with my father and brother and have 3 stored somewhere.
