What Merkle is saying isn't that it's *impossible* to find such a photo, simply that the members of this forum are extremely unlikely to be able to supply one. There are many of us working on the post-expansion era, so we've checked the usual suspects. Certainly someone had a camera at the stadium during Ribant's seven-game stint with the Reds, so it may be *possible* to find a Reds photo of him, but Ribant/Reds is on the UIN (Uniforms I Need) list. If a player/team combination is included in the UIN list, or even more so if the player is on the Missing Player List, you're unlikely to have much luck finding them here, in Topps Vault or in a wire photo.

For anyone unfamiliar with the UIN/Missing lists, you can easily access all of them from the links in my signature. Asking for players or player/team combinations that are included in the lists is redundant. We're all looking for them.
