It is ironic that two of the greatest feats ever by Cardinal players, Tatis's 2 slams and Whiten's 4 HRs and 11 RBIs in one game, involved two journeymen on stop overs

Tatis's feat was against the Dodgers. Bob, I can not remember what Ohio team the Cards were playing when Whiten did his thing, do you recall ?

For Whiten it was the Reds IIRC

I don't think I'd necessarily call Tatis a journeyman on a stopover, at least in regards to his stint with the Cards. I seem to recall him being a youngster, getting his first shot to start in Texas before the Cards traded for him....Dude definitely shined almost immediately in St Louis. Then they seemingly bailed after that first injury(luckily, because the rest of his career was nothing but injuries).

Either way, I have a hard time considering a 23-25 year old, middle of the order, power hitting, third-baseman, a journeyman on a stopover... I get how it could feel that way in hindsight though..

Still looking......

Frank,

I am pretty sure you have sent me PM's on some other sites regarding this card. I have one, but like you, I am completing every Topps Chrome Refractors set. I don't have an extra unfortunately. I will try and keep my eyes open for you.

I have every card from 2005 to present, and am only missing these from the years prior. You don't happen to have any of these?

You actually have one!?!

I am very thrilled that one actually exists. It gives me hope of finding one.

[gopherfan]

I'll post a picture when I get some time. You don't happen to have any of the others?
