You're Welcome, Jeffrey. The guy in the striped cap is catcher John Francis a recruit that never played on the team. Most likely the photo was taken before the season started.

Well.....I am not 100% certain that it's the 1910 team. The guy in the striped cap is also in the 1909 team photo from the guide and ID'd as Greene, which certainly looks more like the player in the panoramic. Also I believe that Bill Brady is the player the fourth player from the left of the panoramic and Powell is third from right and a few others I have tentatively tied to the '09 team pic.

It is either one year or the other I do believe...

The guy in the striped cap is also in the 1909 team photo from the guide and ID'd as Greene, which certainly looks more like the player in the panoramic. Also I believe that Bill Brady is the player on the far left of the panoramic and Powell is third from right and a few others I have tentatively tied to the '09 team pic.

You could be right on 1909. Here's the team from August 1909 Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Yes, as Green/e and Powell are both Catchers...I will try to match some more names tomorrow to fill in the blanks.
