1978 was the first year I bought baseball cards. I've never been real crazy about the design but even so it brings back a lot of memories.
1) Stolen Base Leaders (Patek/Taveras). I remember this was in the first pack I ever bought. I also seem to remember a Don Aase and Pete Mackanin from that pack.
2) George Foster. I was so happy when I finally pulled this one late into the summer. He has both the HR and RBI leader in those league leader cards. And the All-Star designation.
3) Buddy Bell. I've always been an Indians fan and he was their best player in 1978.
4) Len Randle. He looks so happy sliding into base. I was always amused by that.
5) Rick Burleson. This is kind of reach but his only All Star designation year so I'll take this one.
Would have used the Brett, but I've already used one and have another one I want to use.
