Posted By: <b>Gilbert Maines</b><p>It does seem like PSA could tighten up their quality control. With that being said, I don't find the miscut obnoxious at all.<br /><br />Actually I view these "b/w" high number cards as having somewhat subtle differences in coloration. This example has a color combination which is not as commonly encountered as other black + white cards.<br /><br />But it is sure is not graded very strictly.<br /><br />Edited to add: and who would want a player who struck out nearly (&gt;40%) half of his at bats?

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>This Batter-Up card of Lefty Grove (#153) is a Hi# in this set. All the Hi# cards<br />are factory-cut short in this set as compared to the Lo# cards.

Posted By: <b>Brad Green</b><p><br />Who would want a player who struck out 593 times out of 1369 at-bats and had a lifetime batting average of 0.148? That's why all of you should immediately put all of your Lefty Grove cards on eBay. They're not worth keeping.<br />

Posted By: <b>Gilbert Maines</b><p>Gee, Connie Mack wanted him. And Mack has a reputation of being a keen judge of talent. I wonder ... maybe it was how many he struck out rather than how many times he struck out.
