I found a few thumbnail images of an interesting player Harold Joe "Hap" Richie. The left handed hitting and throwing Richie was primarily a first baseman for the Milwaukee Braves, Kansas City A's, Los Angeles Angels and Yankees organizations. He played from '58 to '63.
It looks like he was a line drive hitter who drew a lot of walks. In 1959 he walked 141 times for Midland in Class D. In 1962 he .255 in AAA with 15 homeruns. I have a grainy photo here of him in a Hawaii Islanders uniform of that year. Also included is an unidentified thumbnail from his obituary in 2016 and one from his first professional season in 1958 with the McCook Braves in the Nebraska State league.
