Separated At Birth: Ricky Horton & Jay Johnson















We all seem to have a doppelganger somewhere in the world. Former White Sox pitch Ricky Horton has found one in Jay Johnson.

If you're not overly familiar with Jay's work, don't fret. His name usually isn't the first thing that pops in someone's mind. Lately, he has had high profile guest shots on CSI and That 70s Show. Maybe Jay got tired of his sidekick and tried Major League baseball on for size. When that didn't pan out, he took his old act out on the road again.

You'll probably know Jay by his best known creation, Bob the Dummy. Jay played a character named Chuck on the hit sitcom, Soap. Even if you don't know the names, you know the look.

A great blast from the past. I loved Soap (at least the earlier episodes).

What's really odd about this is that when I posted Horton's regular 88 Topps card, I noted how he looked there like Matt Damon.
