11 Days of Freehan
Day 8
In yesterday's post I commented how Bill was plunked an American League leading 20 times...well, in 1968, the pitchers of the Junior Circuit hit him 24 times!
🎯 Always wondered why Bill didn't get a HBP card instead just a plain Walk card.
✍️ Had to do a re-write after the first post so I could get it in before midnight, as my fibromyagia decided it 2as time to flair up again.
See ya'll tomorrow, Play BALL! 🐅⚾️
A. Looks like Brooks Robinson received the HBP card in the 1968 Topps Game set. Topps missed the mark... as Robinson never led the year in that category during his career.
ReplyDeleteB. Hope your flair up doesn't last long and you feel better soon.
Thanks, appreciate that.
DeleteI love that '68, he's smirking like he's about to take the pitcher deep. Hope you get to feeling better.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
