#76T Mike Macfarlane

There's another umpire clearly visible in the background, although I have no idea who it is.

Most unusual word on the back is "faze" of course.

#71T Jeff Montgomery

Here's Royals all-time saves leader Jeff Montgomery.

I did a little research, and behind him is, I think, Al Bumbry, who was the Red Sox' first base coach during 1988 (and other years.)

On the back, while "totalled" is an acceptable variant of the word "totaled", it's much less common. I'll go with that as the most unusual word, narrowly beating out "Freshman", "Computer", and "Science."

#63T Floyd Bannister

Holy crap! Another card featuring Kevin Seitzer in the background! (see also: Glenn Hubbard.) This guy has one of the best smiles in the history of baseball.

#36T Bill Buckner

Buckner adds class and punch wherever he plays? I find that commentary to be a sort of dig at Buckner, pointing out that he's moved from team to team quite a bit. That's kid of stupid given that in 1988 he joined only his 4th team in 20 seasons.

#22T Pat Tabler

CARD

Nice shot of Tabler here. An action shot with visible jersey number is O.K. in my book. Plus there's the bonus mullet on the back.

STAT

Indeed Tabler drove in a lot of runs. Check out this list of most RBI by guys since 1980 with fewer than 50 career HR. He's way up on that list, but notice how many fewer games and PAs he had than most other folks on there.

CAREER

Tabler was known as Mr. Bases Loaded for good reason. In 109 career PAs with the bases loaded, he had 108 RBI despite homering only twice. He batted .489 with 43 hits in 88 ABs.

I picked two guys at random for comparison:

Reggie Jackson, 235 PAs, 187 RBI, .296 BA (60-for-203), 11 grand slams

Don Mattingly, 163 PAs, 127 RBI, .292 BA (38-for-130), 6 grand slams

Unfortunately for Tabler, his performance with the bases loaded is pretty much all you can say about the guy's career.

#4T Kurt Stillwell

CARD

It seems that all of the photos show at least one body park outside the white border. Here it's Stillwell's left foot.

I like a lot of things about these cards, but one thing I don't dig too much is the hot pink used on the position banner on the card back.

STAT

Here's Stillwell's only career game with 2 triples.

CAREER

I didn't know until reading the card back that Stillwell's dad was a player for the Senators. It's kind of odd that they suggest that the elder Stillwell's playing career signaled the younger Stillwell's talent. His dad had just 38 AB in the majors and hit .211, for goodness' sake!
