While sorting and researching through a group of Hollywood actor and actress autographs I recently picked up I noticed that one of the guys reportedly played for the Portland PCL team post WW2, but I can't find anything in the Minor League Database to support this. His given name is Richard Mansfield Taylor, but he went by Jeff Richards as an actor.

Link to his IMDB bio... http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0724143/bio

Anyone know what the deal is here?

Hi Dan,

Check out Bob Lemke's blog about Jeff Richards. You will have to scroll down until you see a picture of him sitting at a cabinet/desk with a gun in his hand. Perhaps Bob is onto something?

Thanks Shawn! Guess I should read Bob's blog more often...it would have saved me about an hour of digging as well. :D
