Folk Art Renditions of Baseball Players/ Who Are They?

[TaxMechanick]

Hello,Everyone,

I recently acquired these (2) c late 1880's (likely) folk art depictions of baseball players:

I have my own ideas based on the style of uniforms (although no team names are obviously identified) and the represented images, as to whom the artist may have intended them to represent.

Alternatively, they may have been intended as "generic" renditions?

My preference is to first get some of your thoughts, without influence by my personal opinion. What do you think?

Please stay safe and well.

Thanks,
Glenn Mechanick

Could these be cricket players? Dennis Goldstein

The bat on the one player appears (at least to me) in shape to be more of a baseball bat rather than a cricket bat.
