Rick was a well-known catcher in New York, but that was with the Yankees--he was the one who took over for Thurman Munson after Munson's untimely passing, and ended up serving three separate tours of duty with the Yanks. Cerone did have one quality season for the Mets as a part-timer at the end of his career. He's pictured here on a 1985 Hostess Braves card, and another card is shown below.
