I am intrigued by the challenge. Maybe we need to look at minor league archives?

Here are the catchers the Phillies drafted between 1975 and 1985.

1975: Joe Jones, Roman Roberto, Dave Baker, Marc Thomas, Louis Reyes, Dave Van Gorder
1976: Eddie Williams, Ozzie Virgil Jr., George Bertstrom
1977: Dave Walker, Anthony Capps, Stuart Miller, Edward Cuervo
1978: Ed Hearn, Michael Henson, Jeff Ulrich, Derek Williams
1979: David Harrigan, Brian Henderson
1980: Henry Powell, Doug Maggio, Jerome Kovar, Darren Daulton
1981: Vin Soreca, Todd Smith, Adolph Crump, Todd Ezold, John Russell
1982: Kevin Walters, David Vernon
1983: Max Floyd, Timothy Meert
1984: Darren Loy, Robert Gsellman, Eric Bennett, Ray Roman
1985: Trey McCall, Jeff Kaye, Alex Alvarez

Don McCormack (a few games in 80-81) was drafted in 1974. Keith Moreland was drafted in '75 as a 3B. Lavalliere was also drafted as a 3B, converted to catching for or during the 1982 season.

Hmmm....maybe it's Ed Hearn? Some of the facial aspects (eyes) look a little similar to me. Does anyone have a good close up of Ed? Also...where in the Topps Vault alphabet does our mystery man fall?
