Ralph Edwards 1915

Chickazoola has brought to my attention that the Edwards that is listed on Baseball Reference and is pictured below in the Facepack is not the player that actually played on September 17, 1915 for the Philadelphia A's. The Philadelphia Evening Public Ledger of that date states that the player was likely playing under a pseudonym and was from Chicago. They also thought he was a collegiate player. None of that fits the profile of a "Ralph Edwards" who is listed as 32 years old during that game.
