I've assembled my own "Bill Sharman" list, using players from some relevant issues of the SABR Records Committee Newsletter, a section of Baseball-Reference.com which deals with "Phantom Major Leaguers," plus some newspaper research. Knuckles didn't appear in any of those sources. He also was not on the Cardinals' spring roster in any year. He was on the San Diego Padres' spring roster in 1969 and 1970.
