Evans Killeen was a major leaguer. You can find a photo of him in a Kansas City A's uniform on his Baseball-Reference page.

You want William Harold Robinson instead of William Henry Robinson. A photo of him in a Mets uniform was posted on the website of baseball-birthdays. The owner of that website has participated in this thread in the past, but I don't think he wants his photos shared without his permission.

This photo is from the Topps Vault. Alspach was a non-roster invitee with the N.Y. Mets in 1966.

Given the info on Bianchi's Sporting News card (see below), the attached photo from Radaris seems to be the right guy. It says he is Walter J. Bianchi, age 80, from Klamath Falls, Oregon.

This is Basinger's obituary photo. His Sporting News card indicates he was from Salisbury, NC. The obit says this fellow was from Salisbury. Since he died in 2020 at age 78, he would have been born around 1942, which would have been about right for making his minor league debut in 1960.
