These guys jumped around so much in that era. (Baseball Reference has a lot of these guys playing for 2 teams in one season, so it isn't exactly a science just yet due to lack of information)
Just so you know on the highlighted part up top

? is they don't know what the guy batted
* is a lefty
# is a switch hitter
nothing next to name is a righty
