In the previous century...

Here are a couple of WS cards from the 1965 Topps set. They happened to feature action at home plate, so the images included the grandstand crowd.
I suspect that Topps photo editors were not particularly interested in using crowd shots in the cards generally. And, you may be right that women were in some cases intentionally edited out - we're dealing with ancient times in society for the most part. In the past, women were excluded from many male-dominated fields, even if unconsciously by photo editors.
