I have pictured images off full stubs from the 1912 Polo Grounds World Series and 1955 Cincinnati Opening Day for reference.
What is the proper term for the third piece at the bottom?

Kevin,
Yes, that is correct with the 1915 ticket.
In the case of the 3-part 1915 ticket, the top one or ticket with two two sections would be considered a patron's ticket stub because seat numbers are present.
If a ticket example had the middle section only or both the middle section plus the bottom section, it would be considered to be an usher's stub or audit stub.
For simplicity, the ticket stub portion that has the seat numbers, etc. is the patron's stub.
BTW, more recent examples with two sections are a bit easier to identify, but some ticket stock can complicate this because I have seen examples of baseball tickets (as in your Cincinnati Reds full ticket) that have seat numbers at both ends.
