Believe what you will, Kevin, but you may want to check out a few key posts in this thread, mainly the initial post by Greg (botn) with a similar photo from a newspaper identifying the baserunner as Shoeless Joe, then a following comparison photo by Tim. I was also a skeptic at first, so I know where you're coming from, so to speak.
Unfortunately, Tim's comparison photo has since been removed, but it was fairly conclusive. It's a long thread, so it's tough to go back through it all, but check out post
#243 (Greg's initial find of the newspaper photo identifying the baserunner as Joe), post
#306 by Brett, then Tim's post
#344. (other posts added to the findings, but I believe these three may be the key ones to see)
