This IS a minor leaguer so...

...I don't want him to subsume the thread but since it started here, with any luck it ends here.

#52 on a Phillies' 1978 spring training program just shown to me is a non-roster catcher named John Hughes. There's a photo of him, sadly shielded by that mask, in the '78 Phillies yearbook - but the eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth look like very similar - and the helmet clearly shows number 52.

Looks like a tentative match.
