Omar’s Rookie Card

He was the last active player in North America’s major pro sports to have played in the 1980’s. And was the oldest player to play SS in MLB history. Omar, from Venezuela, won the WS with the Cleveland Indians in 1995. He led all major leaguers in games played at SS with 2,709 in the history of the game.

Knock on wood for me. I’ve slowly started to build a nice little Elly Hoard of 10 grades. He receives mixed reviews from a lot of baseball fans. But, I’m a Braves fan, since… birth, and I can’t wait to watch his highlights. I hope that he can stay healthy. Power forwards firing 100 mph grounder cleanups to first base while stealing bases and losing baseballs is a new concept that I’m getting excited about. O’Neil Cruz is next on my list.

I had to pick up this 2024 Topps Archives Mookie Betts. This card still surprises me when I see “shortstop” in small red letters at the bottom. What a legend.
