In fact, he never wore a number that ended in 30. Now, there is a chance this is a spring training photo and he wore a different number then. I also have another photo of Woodeshick, and he does not look a lot like this. I went to eBay to see photos of Woodeshick and on his baseball cards he is not wearing glasses.
I honestly don't know what he looks like, but there is at least reason to believe this is someone else. Any thoughts?

There's certainly room for doubt. I have a dim memories of seeing Woodeshick with glasses but nothing comes up on Google Images. I'll have a look through some of my old magazines. There is certainly a facial resemblance in these two pictures.
I love this detective type work. Does anyone else have information?
