Here's the next round of four, which includes two more of the backup catchers.
I had to cheat a little with the Tyler Ladendorf card. He was with the team for just two days at the end of the season. I couldn't find any pictures so I had to use a screen grab from the TV broadcast.
I believer I may have written about this before, but I saw Ladendorf play in Little League when he was 11 years old. He grew up in Des Plaines, Illinois, which is where I was living in the spring of 1998. My #2 son played Little League and he and Ladendorf were on opposing teams. I clearly remember watchin Ladendorf and thinking that this was a potential big leaguer. He was so much better than anyone else on the field. He was smooth, quick, strong, had a strong arm, and could smash the ball. He was a man among boys. It was nice to see him have a brief stint with his hometown team.
