eBay Wins #222

I've got another giant stack of cards as a consequence of splitting up my eBay wins by set, so here's the first group from 1988 Donruss, until I run out of space to tag the Cardinals players.

1988 Donruss
#3 Benito Santiago
#10 Julio Franco
#13 Shane Rawley
#14 Kal Daniels
#18 Andy Van Slyke
#22 Glenn Hubbard (x2)
#24 Bob Welch
#28 Mackey Sasser
#30 Mike Campbell (x2)

Let's see if every scan has at least one Cardinal. First up is Andy Van Slyke. He counts, despite his Pirates uniform.

1988 Donruss
#35 Shawn Hillegas
#38 Jose Lind
#39 Kirt Manwaring
#45 Vicente Palacios
#52 Pat Clements
#53 Fernando Valenzuela
#54 Mark Gubicza
#55 Jay Howell (x2)
#58 DeWayne Buice

Fernando Valenzuela and Vicente Palacios represent the Cardinals in scan 2. This is the first Vicente Palacios card I've posted, according to my blogger tags.

1988 Donruss
#59 Jose DeLeon
#60 Danny Cox
#63 Tom Browning
#65 R.J. Reynolds (x2)
#66 Kevin Mitchell
#67 Ken Oberkfell
#70 Scott Bankhead (x2)
#78 Dale Murphy
#79 Doug Drabek

Jose DeLeon, Danny Cox, Ken Oberkfell...this one might ruin it for the others.

1988 Donruss
#80 Scott Garrelts
#81 Ed Whitson
#84 Greg Mathews
#87 Donnie Hill
#97 Curt Young
#101 Bobby Witt
#103 Mickey Tettleton (x2)
#106 Mike Scioscia
#111 Bob Forsch

Greg Mathews, Bobby Witt, and Bob Forsch keep the streak alive.

1988 Donruss
#115 Bob Kipper
#121 Mark Eichhorn
#123 John Franco
#130 Ken Howell (x2)
#133 Gene Nelson
#138 Bob Knepper
#143 Ozzie Virgil
#144 Felix Fermin
#147 Scott Bradley (x2)

And, the dream is over.

1988 Donruss
#154 Wayne Tolleson
#155 Mariano Duncan
#156 Julio Franco
#158 Terry Steinbach
#165 Bruce Ruffin
#166 Ron Robinson (x2)
#167 Zane Smith (x2)
#168 Junior Ortiz
#176 Steve Sax

Two Cardinal-free scans in a row. At least there's a Terry Steinbach, who played my favorite position for my second favorite team.

1988 Donruss
#178 Carney Lansford
#186 Bo Diaz
#187 Stan Jefferson
#188 Sid Bream
#190 Dion James
#198 Rey Quinones
#202 Ken Griffey
#203 Tommy Gregg
#207 Von Hayes

I always debate with myself, but ultimately decide Carney Lansford counts, since he wore the uniform as a coach with the Cardinals.

1988 Donruss
#209 Craig Reynolds
#212 Vance Law
#213 Ken Gerhart
#218 Franklin Stubbs (x2)
#221 Tony Phillips
#224 Steve Buechele
#225 Frank White
#226 Alfredo Griffin
#229 Mike Marshall (x2)

No Cardinals to finish off this post, but there's a Frank White, one of the top Royals of all time.


This post had 72 unique cards, but with 12 doubles mixed in I didn't bother to scan, for a total of 84 cards, out of the half-penny box, costing me 42 cents total.
