This was the Giant's style sweaters around 1909-11. Pictures are hard to find. Here's one of Mathewson from 1909 - although it's available in a larger format on Wikipedia under the "1912 World Series" article.

Actually, many of the portraits (cap, no cap) - Bridwell, Crandall, Doyle, Mcgraw, Murray, Schlei, Seymour, Wiltse show the sweaters. Kind of surprising no one has a set of studio portraits on which the lithographs were no doubt based.
