So, when I first started collecting baseball cards, the Score 1991 cards of Otis Nixon and Tom Browning were the first ones I got.

I did not get packs of cards like other kids did. I essentially collected one by one. Among the first ones were Brett Butler (1992 Score), Cory Snyder (1992 Score in Blue Jays uniform), Joe Boever (1992 Score), Arthur Rhodes (1992 Score), Dave Martinez (1992 Score), Brian Holman (1991 Score), and Stan Royer (1992 Score).

I didn’t interview those but got to instead write the stories of Nixon, Browning, Herm Winningham, Casey Candaele, Howard Johnson, Bob MacDonald, Scott Livingstone, Greg A. Harris, Bob Walk, Don Slaught, Steve Buechele, Donn Pall, Bret Saberhagen, Mark Gubicza, Gil Reyes, and Luis Alicea.
