and the topps back:

funnily enough, both white and pettis won gold gloves in 1988 (and 1989) despite the fact that they both played center.  pettis had a miserable season at the plate, though, hitting only .210 with an on base percentage of just .285!  he improved in both categories for the tigers in 1989, but left as a free agent in november of that year.

voici à vous, 1988 gary pettis!
