E90-1 confusion (for me, anyway)

E90-1 Card of Tannehill. This could be either Jesse Tannehill, or Lee Tannehill. Lee played 3B for the Chicago White Sox, so my first thinking is that this is Lee. But Lee throws with his right hand. Jesse pitched for the Washington Senators (AL team) that year, and was a lefty. So, it now seems that this is a photo of Jesse Tannehill, but incorrectly states that he plays 3B for the White Sox. Rumor has it that there is another E90-1 Tannehill card out there, of Lee Tannehill, and that one says Chicago NL (which would be incorrect too, since Lee only played for the White Sox).

I'm getting my info from baseball-reference.com. Guess I was just a little confused, can anyone add some info/clarification for me? I'm sure this is common knowledge for the E90-1 veterans, so thanks for the insight!

The pix you show is indeed Jesse Tannehill. American Caramel captioned him incorrectly. It should read "p. Washington"

His brother, Lee, is also incorrectly identified with "Chicago Nat'l".....it should be "Chicago Am".
