McCarthy did love including CF scoreboards in his shots, whether in Detroit or Chicago, it's true. Thanks!

Besides Brad Wellman, another brief 1980s Dodger 2B I've discovered is Michael Jeffrey Ramsey, the longtime Cardinal utility man, who had a final cup in the Blues in early 1985.

(I guess they had to run him out of town before Michael James Ramsey, outfielder, came out of the farm system, as he would in 1987. Nowadays, you'd just put "Ramsey" on the backs of both of their jerseys and let the fans sort it out, but back then it would have been agony trying to figure out how to distinguish the two on the uniforms, not to mention for Vin Scully in the booth.)

Mike Jeff has lots of Cardinals images and some cards from his time in Montreal, where he was traded in mid-1984, but I can't find him as a Dodger thus far. (As with Wellman, that 1990 "All-time Dodgers" set uses a non-LA image.) Any help, or is he a white whale in Steve Sax's surprisingly-large shadow?
