It does appear to be Fenway, which opened for MLB play in 1912, so that narrows down the time. The National Game cards had a patent date of March 25, 1913. They were likely produced no later than May, 1913, and probably have pictures from before the patent date, so that would narrow it to the 1912 season. Look up the game logs and stories of Tigers at Red Sox from 1912 and you may be able to figure it out. A quick glance at the Boston Globe from 8/21/1912 had a game summary from the prior day that mentioned a play in the sixth inning where Speaker hit a shot to 3b and Charlie Deal threw the ball into right field, allowing Tris to move all the way around to third. Maybe that's your play, but of course there are several other games to review.
