Okay, this might be a stretch but here goes. The picture of Murphy shows the left side of the jersey overlapping the right side, where it buttons down the center. The shadows on the subject picture are the other way around, which means the picture has been flipped (which, I think, Runscott is saying he did.) So that would mean, the subject picture should not have been flipped, because doing so makes the jersey overlap backwards, meaning the hitter was a lefty, and could by Murphy or Strunk, and not Chase or Thorpe.

Make sense, or am I insane?

ok, I see the confusion. My belief is that a photo of Chase was flipped horizontal so that he would be batting from the incorrect side (thus, disguising the picture theft), an 'A' was added to his uniform and his cap also disguised, but his face was left as-is. That's my thinking. Perhaps I'm wrong, but that's why I originally posted this image. Apparently the same was done with other photographs.

Don't think Thorpe was ever considered "A sure hitter" or "An idol of the fans ". Unless the caption is also irrelevant !

Are you referring to your post? If so, interesting strange loop. Nice job for #12!
