Thank you.

Irish was with the Senators during spring training in 1914. The first photo below shows him in a Washington uniform. It's difficult to see, but that's an Old English "W" on his sweater. The photo is from the Washington Herald of March 29, 1914.
I think the second photo (the head shot) also shows him in a Washington uniform. It appeared in the Washington Post on March 20, 1914, accompanying a story about Meusel's getting the winning hit in a Senators' victory over the University of Virginia in an exhibition game.
