Terrific picture...

1910's The girls had their session, Now the boys. The grooms' family side vs. the brides' fam side. Lose the game lose the bride?!

The carnations on the lapel suggest a wedding. The two blokes in the center with Tuxes are the groom and his best batsman. There is also a guy with a tux shirt The tux'd fellow center, rear with the parasol and holding the bats is serving as the Ump?

He may look familiar to the others here. I'd guess the groom was a major leaguer.

These are a lot of fun, too bad there's rarely a definitive answer.

There was a Jack Ridgway, Baltimore, Fed Leaguer. Played four games in 1914.
1889-1928 (auto accident).
