OK, so Didier was a reflex shot, first reaction. Upon further review...

With all of the Burnside images in this small sample, I have been trying to find some photo of Braves minor league catcher John Burns, who was at Double-A in 1969-70. Would fit the bill.

Conversely, the White Sox catcher is almost certainly William Burns, who caught in the Chicago system from 1963-1966.

Time will tell, but back-to-back Burnses is probably no coincidence.
