and the topps back:

1977 was grimsley's last year in baltimore as he signed a free agent deal with the expos in december of that year. it's a shame that we didn't get a team and text variation in 1978 what with grimsley's awesome white man afro so well displayed on his 1978 topps card. before he left, grimsley went 14-10 with a 3.96 era, 11 complete games and 2 shutouts. for les 'spos in 1978, he was 20-11 with a 3.05 era, 19 complete games and 3 shutouts.

voici à vous, 1977 ross grimsley!
