Beisbol ex-voto reminiscent of Roseboro incident.
Does this ref. a known game incident??
(I searched the named players but came up short; also, it's from 2020 or prior.)

From Internet Archive: “one of the rarest nineteenth-century baseball books…, with probably fewer than six copies known…. Issued just two years after the Civil War, the sixteen-page volume lampoons baseball's reputation for roughness in the 1860s”—and w/ progressively worsening player injuries.

From “Base ball. As viewed by a muffin,” by S. Van Campen—pub. date ca. 1867….
