Default Antique equipment guys, help ID age of cartoon?

Ran across this undated cartoon and would like to put a "no older than" date to it, based on uniforms and equipment.
We're not expert on -- well, on anything, of course -- but particularly on the evolution of catchers' and umpires'
facemasks and chest protectors and so on, so if some of you guys who are knowledgeable about it could chime in,
it would be much appreciated.
The scene looks 1910-ish to us, considering also the apparel worn by the crowd in the background, although we're
disturbed by the square home plate (possibly just an anachronistic error by an artist inexpert in his subject).
Still, the newest, most modern element would establish it as "no older than..." ??
