Default Help with Oriole old-Timers Team Photo (plus Honus)

All,

I recently picked up a very interesting baseball photo from the family of Old Oriole Hall-of-Famer Joe Kelley. It contains 19 ball players, at least 10 of which are wearing Orioles uniforms (not all from the same year). This appears to be when the old Baltimore Orioles came back on an "Old Timers" Day along with some other former big leaguers, including Honus Wagner.

I'm hoping to get some help in identifying the players. Also, the approximate year of this reunion (in Baltimore?). The back of the photo indicates a few of the names already:

Top Row (Left to right):
1. Hans Wagner
2. Butcher Boy Schmidt (this makes sense as he was born and died in Baltimore. Additionally, he played on the minor league Baltimore Orioles teams from 1907-1912).
3. Ed Walsh
4. Alan Russell
5. ? Left Russell ?
6. Bill Bradley
7. Joe Kelley (in the hat and bow tie)
8. Bernard Gough
9. ? Steve Brodie?
10. Rube Parnham (played for Baltimore 1917-1926)

Middle Row (Left to right):
1. Clark Griffith
2. Lew Ritter
3. Bill Byers
4. George Maisel
5. Fritz Maisel (born and died in Baltimore. Played with Baltimore 1911-1913, 1919-1928)
6. Al Shacht (seems like quite a character)

Bottom Row (Left to right):
1. Jimmy Collins
2. Doc Kerr
3. Buck Herzog (in his NY uniform, also born and died in Baltimore)
4. Nick Altrock
5. Rube Oldring


THANK YOU!!!
