Help with catcher ID
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hey all,

I've got this image in my office and wanted to try to date the game. I figured the best way to start would be to ID the catcher. I looked at photos of the 12 or so catchers the Braves used all through Robinson's career with a uniform number starting in "2" and the only one I thought it might be is Walt Linden, but he only played 3 career games, all in 1950, the odds aren't good it's him (though feel free to confirm that if it is him....it would certainly make my research a lot easier :)

Does anyone think this resembles any other Braves catcher 47-56?

Del Crandall #23. 1949-50. Maybe.

April 25, 1950. Jackie out at home. Top of the 8th. Crandall at the dish.
