Yes, both in fact played for the Bucs, though not at the same time. The slightly younger non-1960-hero one had a quick stay in 1965, his final year in the bigs. I wonder if they were trying to pull a shifty and get the lesser one back on the cheap and hope nobody would notice it wasn't the 1960 homer guy...
