Default Need help early Philadelphia A's photo

Need help verifying early Philadelphia Athletics photo. After much investigation, I believe this to be a Type I Associated Press photo of Jimmie Foxx crossing home in the 2nd inning of game 1 from the 1930 World Series.

Here is my evidence
#1 - Philadelphia Athletics stated wearing the A on the uniform again in 1928 after abandoning it in 1920.
Looking at Dressed to the Nines. They used the A uniform with the thin stripped socks only 2 years and these were at home: 1929 & 1930.

#2 - The uniforms and socks. The linked photo pretty much asures me this is a 1930 WS photo. (Note the socks of both players on photo captioned "Jim Bottomley and Al Simmons, 1930 World Series"): https://www.baseballhistorycomesaliv...-carousel-8049

#3 - 6 games were played, 3 @ Philly, these were Games 1, 2 & 6
HP Umpires in Philly:
G1: George Moriarty
G2 & 6: Cy Rigler
Home plate umpire is almost certainly George Moriarty and not Cy Rigler. This would make it game #1

#4 - Players who scored runs for Philly in Game 1: Max Bishop, Mickey Cochrane, Al Simmons, Jimmie Foxx & Mule Haas. The 1931 photo of Foxx crossing the plate (see side-by-side comparison): https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/n...re-id493927566

Does anyone know of any video from this game? Has anyone seen this photo before? Does anyone see any flaws in my reasoning?
