Joe Coleman (1947-2025)
Big league pitcher Joe Coleman passed away last night, he was 78.
π ⚾️ Coleman came to Detroit from the old Washington Senators in a trade that sent Denny McLain to our Nation's Capitol.
In 1972, Coleman won 19 games, struck out 222 batters, and compiled a 2.80 era in 40 games, as the Tigers won their first American League East Division championship.
⭐️ Joe's lone All-Star selection came in 1972 with Detroit.
Joe was a 15 year veteran, who also pitched for the Athletics, Cubs, Blue Jays, Pirates, and Giants.
Rest in Peace, Joe.

Matthew Boyd is Back!
The 2025 big league season is well underway, and my favorite pitcher, Cubs lefty Matthew Boyd, is having a pretty good season so far.
π The former Tigers, Mariners, and Guardians pitcher is, after two years away, back in a set of baseball cards.
The last image of Matthew on a baseball card was last year.
π Topps Series 2 will be released on June 11th, and I'm very excited to see the image that was used for Matthew's card...I'll certainly be collecting the variations.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and read my blog, I appreciate all of you.
Have a great rest of your week, and, as always, remember to...Play BALL!

The New Pope- First Ever American/ Topps NOW!
Today The Conclave in The Vatican selected a new Pope , just two days after it convened to elect a new Pontif to lead the Catholic Church.
Topps will produce Topps NOW cards.
Cardinal Robert Prevost, born in Chicago, is the first ever American Pope, taking the name "Pope Leo XIV."
I'm not catholic, however, I'm getting a Topps NOW card of the American Pope, hoping, not expecting, a special "white smoke variant /267."
May God bless the newest leader of the Catholic Church.
p.s... apparently, the Pope is a fan of the White Sox.
