Need help identifying a player
This is from the 1969 Foodland Pirates Photo Album. Labeled Dock Ellis, but I don't think it looks like Ellis. Any ideas?

That's a tough one. I agree it doesn't look anything like Ellis. I searched through Topps sets from 68-70 and saw none that looked like him. He looks possibly Hispanic - maybe an obscure minor leaguer who never made it up.

Here's a 1970 Topps Vault photo for comparison:

While on the irresistible subject of Dock Ellis, I couldn't help but post this ...

Sad story. After seeing the short you put up read on him. When I was young in the 1970's didn't pay much attention to DOC except had his baseball cards. Sad he died of Cirrhosis. I deal with those w/ the disease alot and just dealt with a major cirrhotic a few days ago. He is going down hill in a hurry. Not a candidate for transplant. To be famous and destroy your life when you can do so much good.
