Classic Sports Card of The Day

07 Jan

This 1975 Topps baseball card of George Brett, from www.CheckOutMyCards.com , is the Hall of Fame third baseman’s “rookie” card, which makes it a valuable one. Brett played 21 years in the major leagues, all for the Kansas City Royals. In 1985, Brett had an outstanding World Series, and his clutch hitting helped the Royals overcome a 3-1 deficit in games and defeat the St. Louis Cardinals for the only championship in Royals’ history. He ranks 15th all time on the career hits list, and his 3,154 total hits are the most among third basemen. Brett was a 13 time All Star in his career, and his uniform # 5 is retired by the Royals.
