Looked it up, and sure enough Multiple stints with the White Sox. Even player with his brother for two of those years. I collect Robbie and didn't know that thanks for the lesson!

I can't even remember the last time I was completely caught up. <br /><br />A friend of my dad's who owns a record store said someone mysteriously dropped a box of baseball cards on his doorstep one day, which was then given to me. A few of them had all sorts of weird water damage on them - as was the case with that Bowman auto I sent. Happy to hear it's still earned a place in your collection!Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508921644099472101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3021704198462869399.post-32560370510551990872024-01-21T06:39:54.071-07:002024-01-21T06:39:54.071-07:00Despite not being your sport of choice, this was s...Despite not being your sport of choice, this was still a really solid present for a card collector to receive.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043468725408104535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3021704198462869399.post-17296174719978091302024-01-17T16:44:41.170-07:002024-01-17T16:44:41.170-07:00Congrats on everything!
