What a card: In 1984, Dave Winfield compiled the most hits in a single season in his 22-year career. He rapped out 193.
My observation on the front: Nothing but blue skies for the All-Stars.
More opinion from me: I still remember coming down the stairs to deliver papers in the morning, opening up the stacks of papers on the kitchen table and seeing the big bold headline of Winfield's then-record-setting contract with the Yankees. There was a new bad guy in town.
All-Star performance: Winfield went 1-for-4 in the 1984 All-Star Game, delivering a double off of old teammate Goose Gossage in the ninth inning. It was the last hit of the game.
Legitimate All-Star card or fake All-Star card: Legitimate. Winfield started in left field and played the entire game.
My observation on the back: Three more players tied. Those three with 180 hits were Eddie Murray, Jack Perconte and Damaso Garcia.
