Well, after digging a little into the movie, these were the players that appear in the film:

"Peanuts" Lowrey; Memo Luna; Stan Musial; Red Schoendienst; and Enos Slaughter

So, you could be right, one problem with profile pictures is they don't always look the same as full face. I still think that is Musial, the beak looking nose looks to me like Musial's. I am not an expert, to be sure. Anyone else out there, what do you think?

Dude, come on. That is NOT Stan Musial. It is in fact Enos Slaughter. Look at him!!
Two of these photographs show him older and pretty gaunt, but look how he has the exact same smile in each picture. Same ear, same nose, same small gap in his teeth on his left side, same cheeks, same sideburn cut and hair. And look at those hairy arms!! it doesn't look anything like Stan the Man!!

Just messing with you a bit, I had already been "corrected" from my original post, which I put in the wrong section:

Like I said in that post, just looking real fast, and not really a Cards fan, and knowing that Slaughter wasn't a Card at the time (1954), anyway...sorry for doubting you. I bow to you as the more experter guy!

You are correct, Sir! (and who the heck are the other two dudes?)

Sorry, I get a little crazy with pics sometimes. On the other side of the board, it seems whenever someone asks, "Who is this?" in a picture, 99.99% of the responses are so off the mark and not even close, that it drives me nuts!!

Too bad you had to pay extra for the Mantle when all you wanted was the Alou

One of the disadvantages of being a Felipe Alou master set collector....

I just did a little research and Felipe had such an impressive family. At some point, I might do an Alou family rookie card collection.
