There are several players in T213-2 that are captioned for teams on which they did not play during 1914-1916. Looking at my spreadsheet, I see the following that fall in this group:
Bridwell-Nashville
Campbell, St. Louis Nat.
Geyer- St. Louis Nat.
Hoblitzell, Bos N.
Hummel, Brooklyn Fed
Murray, KC
Quinn, Buffalo Fed
Sweeney, Bill-- Boston AL (but went to Red Sox Spring training in 1915)
Sweeney, Jeff– Richmond (unknown Sweeney played for Richmond 1915) and
Warhop, St. Louis Nat.
Also, in addition to the Rudy Sommers noted, the Camnitz, Savannah card is probably Harry Camnitz, who pitched there in 1915, Hoffman Peoria is likely Izzy Hoffman, player/mgr there in 1915, and the Tim Jordan Fort Worth card is meant to cover a different player by that name who pitched there in 1914-1915.
