In this case, the image came from this eBay auction, which, unfortunately, does not show the back of the photo. What I can say with some degree of certainty is that it's not Chuck Hiller.

I'm thinking this might indeed be Woodeshick, but it might be after his playing days, or maybe he tried to catch on with the Tigers at the end of his career and was cut. |

Don Choate 1960 vs. Chuck Hiller 1961
Here is the photo in question, on the left, and a Chuck Hiller photo which seems to have been taken just a few moments later. Note the brow crease between the eyes, right ear formation (easier to compare with the color image to the right), eyebrow size and formation, jaw line and chin dimple. Next is a Chuck Hiller image from his 1965 Topps card, and next to it a photo of Don Choate from 1958.
Although the image in the eBay auction was listed as Don Choate, it actually shows Chuck Hiller.

Hal Woodeshick 1956 Alt Uni Tigers
Here is a link to another Tigers image, this one from Woodeshick's first stint with the team (note the much different "D" hat logo).

Hiller has thinner lips and far more prominent cheekbones... edited to add: I wish the supposed Don Choate photo showed him smiling... then we could compare teeth with the snaggletoothed Hiller! ![]() Last edited by baseball-birthdays.com; 03-17-2011 at 07:43 PM. |
