Meet Robert Pfaff! In the latest Topps Vault folder, the Braves' fifth round pick in 1984 played professionally for six years and never got above Class A and never played as many as 100 games in a season. But because teams need a slew of catchers every spring and Topps was and is in the business of shooting whoever is in camp, Robert Pfaff was captured for posterity in 1989, which would be his final pro season.
Thank goodness eBay had ID'd him in their new price listing, because even I, a lifetime Braves fan, had never even heard this gentleman's name, much less recognize him.
Following on the heels of Don Johnson and Jimmy Kremers, he adds to the growing roster of obscure Braves catchers who have confounded IDs -- or at least he would have!
