That said, I don't have an explanation for the absence of either (George Davis or Jack Dunn).

The Giants were in New York in early April of 1903, playing exhibition games against Manhattan College (April 8th), Fordham College (April 9th), and Columbia College (April 10th) at the Polo Grounds, before crossing the river to Jersey City to begin a home-and-home series with the Eastern League team on April 11th and 13th. Jack Dunn was training in Savannah until mid-month, when he belatedly joined the team. All of the players in the photo, except Mathewson and Babb, are wearing jackets, and some (expecially Warner) look very cold. I think this is an image from one of those early-April exhibition games played before Dunn joined the team.
