Another “repeat nerd,” Mr. Garrelts has become eligible for the lifetime achievement award. You can check out his first appearance here.
Mr. Garrelts had several good-to-great seasons for the Giants, including 1989, in which he led the National League in ERA.
I like how the glare on his glasses makes his eyes look as if he’s “powering-up” Teen Wolf style.

In going through the nerd archive looking for a nerd to post, I came upon this Jerry Reed card. And while nerd purists may be upset that two posts in a row feature guys who don’t have the big glasses, dated haircuts, etc., I hope many of you can appreciate the psycho-peepers on Mr. Reed.
Without further ado, HEEEERE’s JERRY…

While Mr. Young does not appear to be very nerdy, I am posting his card in order to raise the bar for the “distorted faces” tag. I challenge anyone to show me a baseball card that can top Mr. Young in that category. Also, it looks like he’s imitating the “Handy Man” character from In Living Color.
On April 12, 1992, Mr. Young threw an unofficial no hitter. He allowed two runs on seven walks and an error, becoming the fourth pitcher to throw a no-hitter in a losing effort. Since his team was on the road, he pitched a complete 8 inning game, which does not qualify as a “true no hitter.”

When I posted the Matt Young card last month, I challenged anyone to show me a card more deserving of the “distorted faces” tag. Well Vorpy has responded, and responded with great force, by sending me this Tim Leary card. While Mr. Leary gets a small pass in my book due to his pose being mid-pitch, this is an awfully strong entry in the “distorted faces” camp.
