All seventeen votes in the last battle went to Archi Cianfrocco.
Book recommendation: I just finished "Big Hair and Plastic Grass". A year by year review of the 1970's in Major League Baseball. It is well written and a good luck back.
Two boring cards, so boring I couldn't decide which card to use in the number seventy-nine spot.Thank you for stopping by and thank you for your assistance.
Going with my Michigan Man, Clayton Richard.
ReplyDeleteGo BLUE!
Gotta go with 2019 Heritage here,Clayton Richard.
ReplyDeleteI like the photo of the Urias card. Going with Urias.
ReplyDeleteUrias. BH&PG is a favorite read. I love all things 70s. The book is well-written and entertaining from page one!
ReplyDelete1970 design for me - I vote for Richard
ReplyDeleteI'm on board for Richard.
ReplyDeleteUrias at least has a background, so he gets my vote. I read "Big Hair" last year. I enjoyed it a lot.
ReplyDeleteTough decision. I'll go with Richard... because of the poor photo cropping. Not sure why they'd chop off Urias's left hand.
ReplyDeleteThis motivated me to look up Padres cards with #79 on COMC:
https://www.comc.com/Teams/Baseball/San_Diego_Padres/c1732/Cards,so,=79,p4
A lot of them were 1979 cards... but there were a few Gwynns and a cool McGriff. There's even another Archii out there.
I'll say the Urías is less boring.
ReplyDeleteThe Richard one represents the 1970 set well, but still can't vote for it. Urias.
ReplyDeleteI'm voting for you trying to find a better card to fill that spot :)
ReplyDeleteAh the old "Death is not an option" choice. Going with Richard since he got a WS ring with the Cubs.
ReplyDeleteI am going with the Urias card in this battle, but only because it is a rookie card.
ReplyDeleteRichard by default.
