Typically, I like to have a baseball card physically in the Nerd Archive before posting it on this site. However, while doing some research for a post on Vance Law, I ran across this card through a Google image search. Needless to say, I couldn’t pass it up:

Mr. Law played all 25 innings of the longest game in American League hisory (May 8/9, 1984 vs. Milwaukee). He is also the son of the 1960 Cy Young Award winner Vern Law (who is credited with the saying “a winner never quits, and a quitter never wins.”) Stay tuned in future posts for more Vance Law nerd cards.

    I can’t get enough of these ’84 Topps headshots. This one looks like it was taken at a carnival photo booth. I wonder if this was the least nerdy shot on the photo strip?

    Nerdy, yes…but an amazing signature. It’s practically calligraphy.
