Wasn't there a time when some misfortune resulted in him being deprived of ball cards he'd collected? I seem to halfway remember sending him a few cards. Anyone else remember that??

Are you thinking of Frank Thomas, the old outfielder for the Pirates and several other teams. His house was destroyed in a fire and he lost his card collection.
