Pretty cool card from his last active year.

Oh the 90’s……..1992 Bowman started the trend with the street clothes pics. I wonder what Chipper thinks about this card when he sees it.

One of the funkiest sets because of the crazy color combinations, the 75 Topps set is full of character. Long time SF Giant, Willie McCovey slid down the coastline and joined the Padres for a few years before one other stint somewhere else and then eventually going back to SF until the end of his career.

“Here’s a guy who is the most feared in baseball, but everyone pitches around him. If you let him bat 600 times and pitched to him instead of around him, he’d hit 80 home runs.” – Sparky Anderson

Rock Raines loved the head first slide because he didn’t want to damage the contents in his back pocket. 🤦‍♂😂

He was able to play a game with his son Tim Raines JR while both on the Orioles in 2001

In ‘86/‘87 MLB owners colluded about Free Agency salaries to keep the salaries at a minimum. Tim was caught in the middle of that when he was a free agent. He later sued and won $865K in collusion damages.

Raines WAR was higher than fellow HOFer Lou Brock. Rickey Henderson stole much thunder from Rock Raines legendary career.

1974 Topps Dave Parker rookie. Dude was an absolute legend. Dave Parker often wore a gold chain while playing, which wasn’t common at the time. When people asked why, he said, “When you’re as good as me, you’ve got to look good too.” Dude had style like no other.
