1936 R312, Rogers Hornsby ⭐️ GOAT, 2nd Baseman
The hobby should not undervalue the power of "The Ra-Jah".
Over his 23-year career, "The Rajah" established himself as arguably the greatest right-handed hitter in baseball history. He ended his career with a .358 lifetime batting average, which is the third-highest in MLB history.
He won the Triple Crown twice!
Rogers Hornsby batted .402 over 5 years from 1921-25.
Rogers Hornsby is the only player in Major League history to hit 40 or more home runs and bat .400 or better in the same season. He accomplished this historic feat in 1922 with the St. Louis Cardinals, finishing the year with a .401 batting average and 42 home runs.

1923-24 Exhibits Mike Gonzales Cuban Catcher (Gonzalez) ⭐ MLB Pioneer
Mike Gonzalez is in my MLB Pioneer collection because he played In the Negro League with the Cuban Stars, Long Branch Cubans and NY Lincoln Giants, and made it to MLB, debuting with the Boston Braves in 1912 and playing and coaching in the Majors for various teams through 1946.
Born in Cuba in 1890, Gonzalez' success in both the Negro Leagues and Major Leagues challenged the rigid racial and ethnic barriers of the era, demonstrating that talent transcended the artificial boundaries imposed by segregation.
He was a 4-time World Series Champion (1934, 1942, 1944, 1946), most notabably with the 1934 St. Louis Cardinals "Gas House Gang".
He was inducted into the Cuban Baseball Hall of Fame in 1955.

2025 Leaf Spectacular Game Used True Black #1/1 ⭐ Dizzy Dean
Dizzy Dean was the last N.L. pitcher to win 30 games in a single season, with a 30-7 record in 1934, while leading the "Gashouse Gang" St. Louis Cardinals to a World Series championship.
Today a pitchers W-L record is not as valued, but in 1934 a "W" often meant the pitcher threw a complete game or nearly a complete game.
Arguably the most dominant pitcher of his era, he led the N.L. in strikeouts for four consecutive seasons (1932–1935).
