Doug was a catcher for the Padres from 1981-84 and in 162 career games never played against the Angels.
The guy on Doug's right is Fred Kuhaulua who appeared in 3 games for the Angels in 1977. His autograph is a tough one to get, and one that I lack for my Angels collection.

Very cool. Gwosdz has a spectacular defensive record that keeps his legend alive. I guess Cannizzarro gave him the nickname in 1979 when both were in the cal league (A).
