Anyone have any suggestions as to the identity of this Cleveland player?

From 1892 onwards the Spiders appear to have a mainly white uniform. In 1889 and 1891 it appears the uniform was dark but with a white collar. This appears to pinpoint the uniform as the 1890 Cleveland Infants Players League team. The American Association Cleveland team appeared not have Cleveland across their dark uniforms.

The team photo is of the 1890 Cleveland Players League team, unfortunately unidentified. Possible match top second from right. Note also the slight curve in the lettering for this player whereas the lettering for the others appears straight. Maybe a clean shaven Cub Stricker.
