This is likely the presentation of the Chalmers Award, precursor to the Most Valuable Player award. It included the presentation of a Chalmers auto to the winner. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Most_Valuable...

Confirming Artolog's hypothesis: NYT of Oct 4, 1914 says that Collins and Evers had been declared "most useful" to their teams in their respective leagues. Two cars were donated by the Chalmers Automobile Company. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E0DEED9153FE233A...

This photo appears to gave been taken about a month before George Sisler's major league debut with the St. Louis Browns, on June 28, 1915. Mr. Sisler set the Major League Baseball record for most hits in a season, 257, in 1920, a record that stood until 2004.
