The Browns sleeve logo, that as stated began in 1916, was an "SL" without a "t". The photo in question shows a Cardinals uniform.

It is not Sisler.

What you have is a 1909 photo of Chappy Charles. He was in StL in 1909. Thanks to my friend Matt for finding this one. There also is a confirming photo of him in the St. Louis Cardinals Encyclopedia - definitely the same guy.
