Just a note. Fred Merkle was right handed. That player appears to be 'wearing' his glove on his right hand, making him a lefty. However, it's a slight (but perhaps doubtful) possibility that he's only carrying his mitt in that hand. Of course, the more you look at the photo, other things come to mind. Is that a glove tucked under his left arm? And, is it possible that what looks to be a glove in his right hand might be something else (because it looks to be the extreme size of today's mitts), like a warm up jacket or something?? Too much hazy info in that shot.
