Since you said “man” and not “player” I’m going with Eddie Bennett.
Nope.
Okay, second guess if I may. Chicken Hawks?
Wrong Chicken. This was is imported and disabled.
Can you give us a hint? What position did he play?

Frank Crosetti
Nope. This is a different pisan.

Lou Polli
No interlocking NY on the pinstriped jersey, so it has to be from the 1920s or 30s
Tony Lazzeri?

Lou Polli never made it onto the Yankees major league active roster. The photo is most likely from Spring Training 1930 when Polli was in camp competing for a spot against a fellow named Vernon Gomez.
