John Yandle

One of the odder fates for an obscure Topps upload. Stanford's John Yandle got to Padre camp in 1979 but never the majors, nor did he have much success in the minors. But nearly three decades later he resurfaced as Barry Bonds' personal batting practice pitcher. So popular among the Giants that he outlasted Bonds, and eventually started going to camp with the team in Arizona each March.
