Default photo help needed for card ID

I just won the Clarence Walker Famous & Barr card below from Goodwin.
As indicated on the flip, the photo is not Clarence Tilly Walker--not even close.

I believe I have figured out who the mystery player is and am looking for opinions from those who are better than I at this facial recognition stuff.
I believe the card depicts Ernie Walker, a reserve OF for the Browns during 1913-1915 (related to both Dixie Walkers and the uncle of Harry the Hat Walker).
Unfortunately, I have not been able to find but one known photo of Ernie--please compare it to the enlarged m101-5 and tell me if you think it's the same guy:
