lloyd moseby signed with the tigers as a free agent in december of 1989. here is his 1990 o-pee-chee card:
here's the topps front:
now the o-pee-chee back:
and the topps back:
the text topps chose for the back of moseby's card was unfortunate, as his 9-year streak as the blue jays' opening day first baseman obviously came to an end in 1990.
the first home run moseby hit as a tiger was also the 150th of his career. it came off of the twins' kevin tapani on may 1 in detroit. moseby hit 13 other home runs for the tigers in 1990 in 122 games.
voici à vous, 1990 lloyd moseby!
