Another "Name that Player" contest UPDATED

Back in July, I had a "contest" on the blog to see if readers could identify GOFL players based on some photos, which in turn were based on their nicknames.

Now that we have another month to wait before ball season started, I thought it was time for another such contest. To refresh you memory, here are the "rules", such as they are:

Sometimes you may play against (or even with) a particular player for a long period of time and never know their actual name on their birth certificate. Or you may have a nickname (like I do) that only people you play ball with call you by - your other friends outside fastball have never heard you called that.

With that in mind, this contest tests your knowledge of Greater Ottawa Fastball League player nicknames. See below for four sets of images (the last two photos are combined for a single person), each representing a player in the GOFL.

If you know the real names of the players these represent, put your answers in the comments and leave your name (or nickname, I suppose). First person to get all four correct receives a complementary Labatt 50 the next time they are at the Fitzroy Harbour Community Centre (retail value $3.50).

UPDATE at 3:50pm: I received four correct answers before noon! Kenny Fleck was the first one in at 8:32am. However, he texted me instead of putting in the comments, so I am not sure if he should be disqualified on a technicality. Other correct answers by Shawn Laframboise, Joe McCleary and Derick Bulley, in the comments. (Don't look unless you want to know the answers.) What the heck, all four guys are awarded complementary Labatt 50s at the FHCC. Congrats.
