Here is Cy Barger:
The colorized shot was part of a Brooklyn team photo shot at their Hot Springs Arkansas training camp in 1912. Since Barger began the season in
Brooklyn (he started the 4th game of the season he almost certainly must
be in the photo. No one else looks remotely like his picture in the 1911
Spalding Guide (left pic) The ears, lines above the mouth and a slight raised area above the chin look very similar in the the center and right pictures. I
think its Cy Barger but can't be sure, so judge for yourself.
