My only other thought would be that the Varsity Black player on the 1905-1909 Baseball team was playing catcher in the alumni game to fill in, but it does not appear to be him and I have no idea if he was even a catcher (he is wearing a regular fielders glove in the team photo). Here is a photo of that team for comparison. Maybe Fleet would come back and play because they had a black player on the actual baseball team at the time? I am in no way trying to push this issue, just wanted some opinions from you guys on the idea that it could be him. To provide a little context, here is a photo of one of the other "old timers" in full uniform.
