Random Card of the Day

Year: 1995

Set: Pinnacle - Artist's Proofs (Rate)

Card: #72 Doug Drabek


“ Fire the artist ” -volbox

“ Doug was 1-1 with a 1.65 ERA thru 16 1/3 innings, giving up only 12 hit against my Reds in the 1990 NLCS. The shining star on that Pirates roster. He went 22-6 in 1990 and won the Cy Young. Doug was fierce on the mound. I would definitely NOT wear the headband. ” -CardFlipper1974

“ At first glance, I thought this was a tennis card. I think the baseball border at the bottom is a nice touch. ” -vanstryland

“ I never thought of Doug Drabek as a "No Fear" headband wearing dude. Shows you how little we actually know about these guys. ” -bpaul14

“ Awesome front photo. the back is pretty good as well. I can only imagine the bricking that these cards have tho ” -parsley24

“ Like Pinnacle not a huge fan of this set due to all the foil on foil lettering and such. Much nicer looking in hand than in scans. I have warmed up to these over the years in my old age. As far as Mr. Drabek goes I think I first knew/heard of him during his final year as an Oriole. ” -captkirk42

“ I really liked this set when it came out and remember thinking that I would never get one of these ultra rare Artist proof cards for my PC! ” -YoRicha

“ Blah! ” -NJDevils

“ Thought it was a tennis card. ” -muskie027

Another card and set which doesn't seem to scan well. Quite nicely put together though.

Oh my gosh I did not realize that is what the bottom was.

Thanks for pointing this out vanstryland.

Now I can not unsee it.

I always thought the bottom was terrible but until right now I did not realize it was a baseball.
