Lots of things to not like about being a professional baseball catcher. But one good thing is that you'll likely get to hang in the major league camp in spring training. There's always a ton of pitchers teams look at and, where there are pitchers, there's going to be a need for catchers. And, since you'll be hanging in the major league camp, a good photographer is likely going to take your picture.
Bill Boyce was a catcher with the Auburn Mets in 1963. But this photo of Bill in a major league uniform probably dates to 1964 (Mets added numbers to the front of the uni in '65 and, in the spring of '65, they were still wearing the World's Fair patch).
Bill had a nice year with Auburn (.276 with 11 home runs and 74 RBIs). Good enough that, at the start of the '64 season when he'd been promoted to Salinas, Bill was considered the top prospect in the California League. Well, that star faded fairly quickly. Bill never got higher than AA and was out of baseball after the 1968 season at the age of 25.
