Another page of a bunch a guys I don't remember much about. I even went and read the backs and still don't remember them. Most of them had very short major league careers. Here is how many games each played in the majors, in order; 3/20/6/45/242/9/90/6/22. I just made a card for a pitcher who pitched in one game for the 1981 Expos. How did you do recognizing these guys?
0 for 9 again. Although I feel like I've heard the names Dick Sharon and Marv Lane before... I know down inside that I don't know them. It's just my subconscious trying to save face.

I did pretty bad at recognizing, as usual. Cooo stuff though!

I only know Dick Sharon. He has that terrific 1974 Topps card (and of course is in the '75 set!)
Got me on all of them. Fun post remembering some of the little guys of the sport.
