J.T. and the Hidden Ball Trick

You may have seen this on Retrosheet lately...

http://retrosheet.org/hidden.htm

Did J.T. Snow really pull it off only once?  I thought that was almost a calling card of his.  There have to be more occurences... anyone remember specifics?

Strange Ozzie Guillen being a victim 3 times and then later becomes a manager of a World Series team.

Re: J.T. and the Hidden Ball Trick
Ozzie Guillen got caught twice in less then a month and half! The other one I like is Vada Pinson getting caught on his Birthday!
   I still can't figure out how a triple play could occur on it? Was the tail end of a double play?

Re: J.T. and the Hidden Ball Trick
SFGate's game recap from 1999 identifies the one mentioned by retrosheet as Snow's first successful hidden ball play; it says that earlier that season he tried it against the Astros but Tavarez went to the mound and got called for a balk.

Speaking of JT...
What ever happened after he was DFA'd by the Red Sox? I can't find any mention of him online.

Re: Speaking of JT...
I think he and Woody are hanging out in the Shed.
