If you have any information about this tour it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
David Heim

A team photo of the US team only (most photos show both US and Japanese players together) shows Connie Mack and 16 players in uniform, for an apparent total of (at least) 17. Add these to the list in previous post:

13) Lefty O'Doul
14) Lefty Gomez
