Tigers Card Tuesday- 1980 Jack Morris

Tigers Card Tuesday! 

           1980 Topps #371, Jack Morris

Card on rhe Table (2/2/2026)

This week's Card on the Table celebrates my favorite big league pitcher, Matthew Boyd, who turned 35 yesterday. 

This is one of my absolute favorite cards of Matthew, card #1 of just 3 copies! 

             2022 Topps Triple Theads, #1/3 

 That awesome piece of the famous Olde English D really makes this card special.        

             

Here's hoping that Matthew, and all of today's Happy Baseball Birthday! friends had a magnificent day.

Freehan on Friday

No idea what year/game this photo is from, however, as I continue to battle left arm/shoulder pain from a fractured elbow, it seems appropriate for today's Freehan on Friday! 

Have a fabulous Friday! 

Card On The Table

Each Monday morning I change my Card On The Table. 

This week's card is my 2019 Topps Living Set Matthew Boyd, the only card of the set that's graded. 

Hope everyone has a wonderful week, and, fir those of you, who, like myself, are living in the frigid Midwest, try and stay warm, and, please, , please, be safe.

Happy Hoops Birthday! Caitlin Clark.

The first ever Happy Hoops Birthday! post is here, because, I saw that it was the 24th Birthday of my favorite WNBA hoopster, the amazing Caitlin Clark. 

Don't have many of Caitlin's cards, but, I get them when I can. 

This is the coolest thing I have of the former Iowa Hawkeye. 

Happy Birthday, Caitlin! 🏀

Living Set Wednesday- Card 900!

On Wednesday Topps released Living Set Card #900, of Philadelphia Phillies legend Mike Schmidt. 

This is such a great milestone for my favorite baseball cards. 

Love the old school Phillies zip up sweaters, and that awesome ball cap. 

My recent Living Set addition-

Freehan on Friday- Baseball Best Catchers

Freehan on Friday- 01/09/2026

My All-Time favorite baseball book cover.

I've had this book, first, when I was a kid, around age 12, and, then, a couple of years ago, gifted to me by a fellow baseball fan. 

The books have been lost over the years, first, do to moving stuff while I was in the Navy, in the mid 1980s, and, recently, after we lost our storage unit. 

Hoping I can find another copy. 

Have a great weekend, and, as always, Play BALL! 🐅 ⚾️
