We may have to have some sort of voting to determine the best use of the “distorted faces” tag….
Mr. Gibson played in eight seasons for the Tigers, Mets, and Yankees. Wikipedia also lists him as a member of the Brewers, Blue Jays, and Pirates, but he did not play in a game for any of them.

The run on Vorpy’s ’92 Score set continues…What struck me when I saw Mr. Briley’s eye-wear for the first time was their similarity to Jon Lajoie’s “Rapist Glasses.” Mr. Briley is now a minor-league hitting coach in the Chicago White Sox organization.

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.
Not to be confused with the psychedelic drug advocate, this Tim Leary played in the major leagues for 13 seasons. He finished his career with almost 1500 innings pitched, an ERA+ of 90, a World Series ring, and the 1988 “Comeback Player of the Year” award.

I hope Mr. O’Brien is catching a pick-off attempt in this picture, because if not, the Score company has captured the first “stretch” in baseball history that fails to clear the edge of the base from which the stretch originates.
Mr. O’Brien appears to have been a very good defensive first baseman, and even hit more than 20 HRs a couple times in the mid 1980′s.

I was extremely disturbed to see that Mr. Manrique has been knocked out of the #1 all-time spot by Kent Tekulve 2.0. So I thought I should remind everyone of Mr. Manrique’s greatness. Vote anything less than 5 stars at your own risk.
Recently, I Love Nerd York City posted a great Steve Lake card (remember the guy with the bird on his shoulder?) and speculated as to whether or not the ultra-literal “funny” cards that I made in my younger days included a Steve Lake card, seeing as how Mr. Lake’s last name is also a noun.
The name rang a bell and, searching through my stack of “funny” cards, I found one that I had made featuring Mr. Lake. I’m sure you can guess what it looks like. I hope Mr. Lake brought his hipwaders to the ballpark that day.
