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

Willie McCovey, nicknamed "Stretch" for his height, was a powerful slugger who played 22 seasons in Major League Baseball, primarily for the San Francisco Giants.

In 1959 he was named the National League Rookie of the Year. McCovey had 521 career home runs and is tied with Ted Williams on the upper rungs of the all-time list.
