The fact you have the sunglasses picture on "bane-001edd" is likely because you overwrote the other one in the clean-up.

But as to the database issue... I can't understand why the retired player file from a starting game wouldn't have the "bane--001edw" in that field. The "edw" is the one that is in bRef's minor league database and it is also the only one that will import Eddie (I know the "baneed01" also imports him, of course, but the minor league code should too when you toggle the minor league database on). So, if that's the case, the "edd" field is a hangover from when the codes were different, perhaps? I too hope that's a one-off...

Yeah. I changed the edd version to the Ed’s version when I made my first pass I have since overwritten it with the picture with the glasses as that seems to be the Most accurate based on pics from bref.

Definitely is not a one off from what I have seen so far. Looks like whatever DB the game uses for a standard game is different from when you start with a historical game and that shouldn’t be. Or if it has to be that way, then they should be identical in IDs.

Granted, it’s not critical in a standard game as you probably won’t see the historical faces much unless you dig deep but still…
