For cabinet cards in general, not just the T5s or baseball, it was not rare for the photo studio to cut the photographic print to fit into the embossed shape. If you look at a 1900s cabinet with an oval photographic print, you can often see that it was carefully handcut.

What I find funny about the T5s is when the photographic prints are pasted on crooked.
