Thank you all for taking the time to help me out.
Thanks austinmike for the scan. Greatly appreciate it.
Looks like I should try to find some programs or team sets.
Fingers crossed it's Matt Williams.

Yes, definitely go with the card sets of the era...usually can be had cheaply and will spot your guy.

Also might try start of the season newspaper microfilm from Phoenix...often they print a team roster or some such. Newspapers.com if you know someone with a membership might be a good place to look.

You may hit on some luck here...at least has a photo of each card. Too bad they didnt wear front numbers

Sorry for the delay in responding. I went to a few Firebirds games in the late '80s and just checked a 1988 scorecard.

#16 was worn by Brian Ohnoutka in 1988
#16 was worn by Mike Jeffcoat in 1986

Those numbers dont refer to the uniform number though, unfortunately.
