@RunningOZ @Shlabotnik_Rpt @Topps Could be Bench or one of the Mysterious Three Tramps from Dealey Plaza. https://t.co/p7hSgitlIP — PolitiTweet.org

@RunningOZ @Shlabotnik_Rpt @Topps Dietz was catcher for every 1971 Giants home game vs. Cubs except one that Fran Healy caught. Healy appearance was 2nd game of DH, when freelance photogs often have gotten their shots & cleared out. So I like the odds it was Dietz. #BoxScoreNerd — PolitiTweet.org

@RunningOZ @Shlabotnik_Rpt Mantle cards are more than 1% of the 1961 set. https://t.co/EjBkNdRhdg — PolitiTweet.org

@Shlabotnik_Rpt @RunningOZ I count eight Dick Dietz appearances in 1972 @Topps. https://t.co/2te6dTbc6q — PolitiTweet.org

@nyctaper @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @CardsStory Nearly made it with that final 7-16 season in 1975. — PolitiTweet.org

@BigHairPlasGras @YouTube Saw him once in the 1980s -- great show. I'm a huge @ElvisCostello fan but Dave's version of Girls Talk might be better. And a Nick Lowe sighting in the video! — PolitiTweet.org

@luckydoghunter @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @CardsStory Solid pitcher. Until I looked it up, I had no recollection of him finishing his career with the Braves and getting a W in the 1991 World Series. — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@CardboardHistry @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardsStory Love that 1971 horizontal with the thick glasses. He had some great seasons in the 1970s and I considered him a star at the time; was surprised to see his career record was 152-156. — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@dgmccready @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @CardsStory I forgot about his one season (1978) in Detroit. He was 17-11 that year and 62-40 from 1978-83. The rest of his career was 89-118. Said it before but as I get older these kinds of players fascinate me most. — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

With a career 216-216 record, Charlie Hough had the most decisions of any pitcher with an even .500 winning percentage. https://t.co/G5rLQZxTQM — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

Friend had five winning seasons, a 17-17 year and 10 seasons below .500. Pitching with that helmet in the 1950s, albeit a cool flocked one, probably didn’t help. https://t.co/M64wHjlMMe — PolitiTweet.org

@Tec872 @CardsStory @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry These are awesome! He was deservedly proud of that 1951 season. — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@kurtblumenau @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @CardsStory Career 104-152 record; you've got to have talent to be handed the ball enough to lose that many games. — PolitiTweet.org

Cy Young was baseball’s biggest loser with 315. Of course, he also won 511. https://t.co/6dXZdXWXjB — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

Carpet o’Cards: Most losses by pitchers with sub-.500 career records. Some decent hurlers here. Bob Friend, 4x All-Star & 1960 WS champ, tops list w 197-230 record. @SABRbbcards @nightowlcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @CardsStory https://t.co/RH5QVJPU75 — PolitiTweet.org

@SplitSeason1981 Later it was the longtime Grapefruit League home of Orioles and shows up in a lot of their cards. https://t.co/q3PZFik1Zc — PolitiTweet.org

@SplitSeason1981 One of my favorite cards. Work of art. — PolitiTweet.org

Just realized it’s my first non-@Topps Mantle. https://t.co/6Sm9IXOqaY — PolitiTweet.org

@perryfbcoach @delspacefranco @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardboardHistry @CardsStory You have completed those sets or working on them? — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@delspacefranco @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardboardHistry @CardsStory Yes, but need dupes — for set & for side collections of each player. https://t.co/pGg3aT9MsB — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@JimClarkeAP @delspacefranco @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardboardHistry @CardsStory Appeared only on @Topps that year. https://t.co/GISN2DE68S — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

Still need 22 high numbers, but the biggest obstacle to completing the #1955Bowman set has been removed. @delspacefranco @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardboardHistry @CardsStory https://t.co/KVteoBKiiI — PolitiTweet.org

@delspacefranco @wthballs Love to flash my custom @wthballs 1972 club card, though most people don’t appreciate how exclusive the membership is. https://t.co/n9lefmypcG — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@delspacefranco Always looked forward to those cards! I remember Rudi’s catch in Game 1 & expecting it on the next year’s WS card. (It wasn’t; but that was my thought process as 8-year-old.) https://t.co/RkkRTDMCFa — PolitiTweet.org
