Default Perhaps a little more than just teammates?

The auction description reads:

The Brooklyn Excelsiors were one of the first organized baseball teams in America and are credited with helping to make the game our nation's national pastime. This is an important image to baseball historians and was featured in an article in Vintage and Classic Baseball Collector issue #14 1998. The article provides documentation of the discovery of the image, identification of the team and the identities of the sitters, A.T. Pearson (right) and a Mr. Holder (left). A copy of that article accompanies this lot.

We can only surmise what position Mr. Holder played.
