... shows that Storke died in 1910 and was with St Louis the previous year (the player in the #21 slot (2nd in from left in front row) is wearing a St Louis sweater) and the article says that Storke was signed by the Reds after 1909.Thoughts?

Mike - it can't be Alan Storke. Below center is the face in question from the "hats on" version of the OP's photo (from Library of Congress). Storke is at left (from SABR archives) - the ears do not match so the face in question can't be Storke.
At right is Jimmy Doyle with the Cubs in 1911. The face in question is Doyle (whatever you are looking at, don't forget the ears). Also compare the hairlines in the side-by-side posted just above by RUKen.
