It's a nice photo - but it definitely is not Harry Bay.

1) The tip of Bay's nose is very broad - the nose tip of the guy in your photo is much more pointy

2) Bay has a pretty much horizontal crease across his chin. The player in your photo has a crease with sort of an inverted "U" shape.

3) Compare the size of the right ear (viewer's left) of your guy with that of Bay in the photo below left - your guy's ear is clearly too big.

Either one of these is alone enough to show that he is not Bay. There are other mismatches - but these are the most easily seen.

"Unknown minor league player" sounds right.
