The notorious Donald Johnson/Ken Nixon sequence is revisited for the third(?) time in the Vault, which means that former Southern Cal catcher Johnson now has more Vault photos than he had spring training appearances (three) for the Braves -- as close as he ever got to the big leagues.
The history, which was exhaustively detailed here once before, is that Johnson was added to the Braves' spring squad due to injuries to Gene Oliver and Joe Torre, and the Braves needed a body. Johnson, wearing a number (50) that was issued to an already demoted Carl Morton, was a Vault mystery for quite a while. Now he's just another nobody who had a ton of photos made of him in his lone MLB camp.
Today's Vault offerings also include an appearance by Reid Nichols' epic porn stache.
