1905 Pirates - need i.d. help

[z28jd]

The Pirates roster at the end of Spring Training was:

Peitz, Howard, Wagner, Ritchey, McBride, Clarke, Beaumont, Clymer, Leach, Carisch, Clancy, Hillebrand on offense.

Phillippe, Leever, Case, Lynch, Flaherty, Robitaille

and at the very end Goodwin, Lindaman and Holmes were the last three cuts, all near mid-April.

That is 21 by my count and that pic has 21 players in it including what looks like Lindaman. Just to clarify, at least half of Spring was just those 21 players. They only took nine pitchers to camp. So this is possibly/likely a Spring Training team photo from late March/April

Harry Smith wasn't there during Spring Training, he joined the team briefly during the season that year. Hillebrand was the 3rd string catcher instead.

Those 21 guys I mentioned here Scott were the only guys the Pirates had. Harry Smith was sent home March 20th with an arm injury from the previous season that didn't heal. For almost four weeks, those 21 players were the Pirates team. No Bull Smith, no Harry Smith and no players joined this group until Frank Moore in mid-June
