The photo below is from the Springfield (MO) Leader of June 16, 1928. At that time, Red Schillings had been pitching for the Springfield Midgets and had just been released. The same newspaper had been reporting on Red Schillings the year before with Muskogee, so it would seem to be the major leaguer.
P.S. Red Schillings' Sporting News contract card confirms that he was released from the Tulsa minor league team to the Springfield (MO) minor league team (Western Association) in May, 1928, and then he was released from Springfield in June, 1928.
