Another TCMA card from my collection. One day I hope to own every great players first minor league card. Happy collecting!

This picture is the only time Eric Davis was caught with his eyes closed. His defense was every bit as electric as his bat. In center field for the Reds, he played with fearless intensity, explosive speed, and a cannon arm that made runners think twice. Davis didn’t just track balls, he attacked them, taking away hits in the gaps and turning routine singles into outs with aggressive routes and quick releases. He brought a wide receiver’s mentality to the outfield, changing games with momentum-shifting catches and throws, and setting a tone that defense mattered just as much as power in Cincinnati.

1981 TCMA Cal Ripken Jr. minor league card. One day I’ll own the 1980 WBTV card but today is not that day.

1979 TCMA Pedro Guerrero and Dave Stewart minor league cards. I love the early TCMA cards. There was something fascinating about finding their first cards before they were pros. Although Dave Stewart has 1 earlier, these are very cool cards too me to have in my PC.

Wade Boggs first card!
