The man in black in the bottom favors Pete Alexander but im not sure. Wilbert Robinson with the B on jersey left of Honus? John McGraw top row 3rd from right?
Bert Humphries 1910-1915 is 4th from left on bottom row
I Figured id drop it here incase anyone wanted it

That does look like Honus Wagner in the center. The photography studio was in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, which is near Pittsburgh, so it is possible that Wagner was in attendance at a game there. The others may be former local players, amateur or minor league. Alexander, Robinson, and McGraw are not among them. Bert Humphries had the first name of Albert, and the name written on the back is Harry Humphries.
