Another fun stats card, Killebrew lead the AL in 1969 with 140 RBI’s. What a beast!!

Another great option for collecting HOF’ers at a great entry point are through team cards. What I really love about the 70 set is the stats on the back are the teams all-time stats. Pretty cool! Btw, one of the greatest home run hitters is in this pic.

“In 1968, he was limited to 10 minor league games, with no appearances for the Orioles. The outlook on his career was so bleak, Palmer considered quitting baseball to attend college or trying to be a position player.”

When I was looking at his career stats at this point in his storied career as an ace for the Baltimore Orioles, I wondered why 68 was so dismal. I wonder if Earl Weaver was the problem?! lol (Those who know; know)

I vividly remember opening this card up from the wax pack as a kid.

Bonds scored a career high 134 runs in 1970. He would go on to total 1020 runs during the 70s, second only to Pete Rose.
