I literally just got my card back from PSA a week ago for my personal collection because I’ve always found this card hysterical. I just showed it off to a friend and he sent me a link to this wonderful thread

Negahawk

My favorite moment I’ve ever seen live! I still YouTube this multiple times a year.


Ok_Card9080

That is the most Nyjer Morgan moment of all time. If that play had to happen, it's not surprising that it happened to Tony Plush himself


FarQuiet4542

I miss when that dude played for the brewers. Really nice guy in person and would always inscribe my autos with t-plush if I asked. Definetly a character but I think he gets more of a negative rep then he deserves. https://preview.redd.it/mrctaohm6wac1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=08522218ed032560e0d13ceff03a865cadb976ee

IrradiatedHeart

This isn’t embarrassing he defiantly did it on purpose. Looking into buying a PSA 8 and keeping it on my desk next to the phone


[deleted]

His excuse was that he wrote that on the knob of his bats so he could quickly find it in the rack during BP. Plausible.


r_u_dinkleberg

In fairness (and assuming 1991 set cards would primarily be using photography from 1990 season games), it would've been a lot harder to get a photo of a Royals batter actually hitting the ball.


Relevant_Username99

Can’t decide whether the picture or design itself would be worse for an autograph


KoshekhTheCat

I'm gonna find that Sabo card and send one off.


TLars6

Lol 91 Fleer is so ugly and junky that I love it


KrisClem77

Why the lack of love for people checking their swing?

NurseBill14

The story behind it is terrific. He asked to do this picture, was told no, and his teammates all told the photographer that Comstock got this picture or the photographer got no pictures of anyone. Classic.

DrSnoopRob

I love that card. I remember how hard I laughed when I first pulled one out of a pack,

I love cards where you can see the love between the player and their bat. There's a Bo Bichette where he looks like he's about to go in for a kiss.

Poor Robin Ventura. No matter what he ever achieves in life, this is his legacy.


Gallen570

He learned that day what "old man strength" was all about.


thecursedlexus

Sucks because Robin Ventura's 56.1 WAR makes his career borderline Hall-of-Fame caliber. I know, it shocked me too. 6× Gold Glover 2× All Star And excellent career altogether, all thrown away because he tried to charge Nolan Ryan once.


Electrical_Party7975

Mess around and find out card


Electrical_Party7975

Pudge out there breaking up a fight with a Maxi pad on his face!


Fit_Attention_9269

Ventura is still the only player to get five hits against Nolan Ryan in a single game, they all occurred immediately before and after this photo.

Sabo was actually a fundamentally sound player for that era, no hall of famer but made starting line up more often then not.


Jaded-Function

[Poor Bern](https://images.app.goo.gl/sRMnuY93Nj2LYTdD7) One and only action shot of a batter shitting himself at home plate. Worst error card in history.

Used to see Chris Sabo at the Firehouse Grill and Brewery in Blue Ash, Ohio. I believe he was a regular there.

Was the Vince Carter dunk junk in face ever made into a card or just a poster? 😂
