Color me different, but I don't think it looks remotely like Lou Gehrig--too small. I thought exactly like Scott--Meusel knocked in Ruth. It looked to me as if Meusel is trying to stretch his hit into a double, and the question is whether Gehrig was on base heading to third or had he already made an out. The guy in the batter's box looked like Poosh 'em up to me right away, at least much more than Meusel, although I suppose it's conceivable it is Joe Dugan.
I thought this card set and the Tabacalera La Morena one like it were issued in 1928 or 1929. If so this was during the Murderer's Row years and the pic likely would have them from a game where they batted in their famed order of Ruth, Gehrig, Meusel and Lazzeri.
