now the o-pee-chee back:

and the topps back:

with the twins, reardon appeared in 4 of the 7 games in the 1987 world series, saving 1, which just happened to be game 7.  he spent not quite 3 years in boston before being traded to the braves for nathan minchey.  he pitched really well for the braves in the nlcs against the pirates, winning 1 game and saving 2 others with a spotless era.  unfortunately, he didn't do so well in the series against toronto, losing game 2 and giving up the walk off hit in game 3.  still, the terminator ranks 7th all-time in saves with 367.

voici à vous, 1990 jeff reardon!
