Not baseball but...
... I thought you guys would get a kick out of this 1912 Frank Patrick (Hockey HOF) RPPC.
The story behind the postcard is that the PCHA Vancouver Millionaires team was being chastised by their fans for not putting out enough effort. After Frank Patrick took a beating in a game, he had his photo taken and a postcard image made to show the fans that the team was in fact willing to do whatever it took to win. He had over a dozen stitches and bandages when this photo was taken!
