Help Identifying Some 1931 MLB players
 
1 Attachment(s)
Going through my Japanese baseball photos, I found this one from the 1931 tour. Lou Gehrig and (I think) George Highpockets Kelly and maybe Lefty O'Doul. But this isn't really my area of specialty.

Does anyone recognize the other players? Or correct me if any I've named are wrong?

Thanks!

A tried scanning a smaller section for easier identification. It's hard to manage to get high resolution without the photo being too big to attach....

Last two guys on the right are tricky but here's what I've got:

L to R - Mickey Cochrane, Al Simmons, Frankie Frisch, High Pockets Kelly, Tom Oliver, Willie Kamm

And the player next to Al Simmons appears to be Ralph Shinners.

Thank you so much, Andrew. That's a huge help!

For some reason it didn't get attached at first, but here's the closeup of the left side. Just based on the history of the event, I believe that is Gehrig bowing and accepting the flowers.
