Mine is merely a bit of trivia. Reggie Smith (a HIGHLY underrated player) has a 1967 Topps Rookie card. It is #314. How many home runs you think Reggie hit in his career? If you guessed 314 you'd be right. I actually discovered that little tidbit on my own and I love sharing it. Can't imagine there's any other player that this can be said about.

I would be astonished if he was the only one. Basically everyone whose rookie card is a Topps issue has a number in the 1-792 range, and everyone in the history of MLB has a career total somewhere in the 0-762 range. That's thousands of different players. I'm guessing there are at least a dozen other matches.
