Need help with 1941 Cubs real photo

[cubman1941]

Have a few 1941 Cubs real Photos this one was ID'ed as Jimmy Hopp - could the have meant Jimmy Wilson? I can not find a Jimmy Hopp who ever played baseball - Johnny I know was a Tiger. Thanks.

Thanks, I know Johnny Hopp played from 39-52. I can find nothing on Jimmy Hopp which is why I think it might be Jimmie (y) Wilson who managed the Cubs 1941-44.

It appears to be Johnny Hopp wearing a St. Louis Cardinals uniform, Hopp playing for the Cardinals in 1941

Thanks, that could be but the others are Cub players. As I checked the pictures out closer, I found 3 from 1941 and 3 from 1942 (tell it is 1942 because of the HEALTH patch on the uniform). This one I can't tell and am only going by what is written on the photo. I gather it is possible the Cubs and Cards were playing that day and the person got 3 Cubs and one Cardinal.

Now I am confused - I did a re-look and it appears that is a 1939 Bicentennial patch on his uniform so this would make this a 1939 photo - still have no idea of who it is.

I saw a photo labelled as 1944 (of Hopp and Musial) with the patch. If the dating is correct, the patch was worn for multiple years.
