Help Identifying 1941 Brooklyn Dodgers Players

[budob]

Thanks all so far!

clyde - The Chicago Tribune ran a cropped portion of this photo the next day and they identified the headless player as Wyatt - he was the winning pitcher of that game.

Actually, after checking BBR, Higbe was the winning pitcher on 9/24 the day they clinched (they were 1.5 games up over StL. with each team having one game remaining)- Whitlow pitched his league high seventh shutout in the season finale the next day, 9/25.

My oops Raymond - I actually knew that Higbe won that game..... ergo his autograph on this piece.

So far this is the best consensus.....

Front row: Dressen..... Durocher.... Reiser.... Medwick

2nd row: Lavagetto... Fitzsimmons.... Higbe.... Wyatt

3rd row: Walker... part face unknown.... Bodner (batboy).... Vosmik... part face unknown.... Riggs... Camilli.

No, Vosmik is the obstructed face to the left of Riggs. My guess to the full face to the left of Riggs is either Jim Wasdell, Tommy Tatum or Vito Tamulis.
