CURT FLOOD, STEVE GARVEY, BILL MADLOCK, TERRY PUHL, JAY JOHNSTONE, FRANK THOMAS
and CHARLIE HAYES
Baseball Cap signed by six former Major
Leaguers
Hat signed:
“Curt Flood”, “Bill Madlock”, “Terry Puhl”, “Jay

and
“Charlie Hayes”
. Black and green baseball cap
bearing bearing Upper Deck logo, signed by all seven on the bill and crown.
CURT
FLOOD
(1938-1997)
, who roamed the St Louis Cardinals outfield
from 1956 to 1969, was one of the best defensive center fieldersof all time, once
playing
223 consecutive games without an error. A 3-time All-Star and 7-time
Gold Glove winner, he played in all seven games of three World Series for the Cardinals.
His challenge to the “reserve clause” was unsuccessful, by a 5-4 vote in the
US Supreme Court, but helped pave the way to free agency five years later.
STEVE
GARVEY (b. 1948) played an NL-record 1,207 consecutive games
. He was elected to
the All-Star team as a write-in candidate in
1974
, and was voted
MVP of the game and the season
. Garvey’s name would not be left off the
All-Star ballot again, and he was elected as a starter the next six years.
In
ten All-Star Games he hit .393, and his slugging average of .955 is the highest of any
player with more than 20 at-bats.
The winner of
four Gold
Gloves
, Garvey retired with a .996 fielding average. He played on 4 LA Dodger
championship teams. Garvey’s
“Mr. Clean” image
during his playing days
has been sullied by a bankruptcy resulting from child support paid to several
women
. In 2011, he was fired from a public relations with the Dodgers for trying
to organize a buy-out of the financially troubled franchise.
During 15 Major
League seasons (1973-1987),
BILL MADLOCK (b. 1951)
, primarily a third
baseman,
led the National League in hitting four times (1975-1976, 1981, 1983)
. He
starred for the Pirates during their World Series victory of
1979
. A
three-time All-Star
, he was the only right handed
hitter to lead the NL in hitting between 1971 and 1989. Canadian
TERRY PUHL (b.
1956)
played 15 Major League seasons (1977-1991), all but the last one with the
Houston Astros. A fine defensive outfielder and steady hitter, he set a (since broken)
record for the highest batting average in a playoff series: .526 in a losing effort
against the Phillies in the NLCS (1980). He was an All-Star in 1978. While not as famous
as Frank “the Big Hurt” Thomas of later years,
FRANK THOMAS (b. 1929)
played solid outfield (and shaky infield) for the Pirates, Reds, Cubs, Braves, Mets,
Phillies and Astros between 1951 and 1965.
A 3-time All-Star, Thomas led the
original Mets in 1962 with 34 home runs and 94 RBI.
He
played on two of
the worst teams of all time
, the 1952 Pirates and the 1962 Mets, and on 7 teams
which lost over 100 games.
Baseball statistician Bill James rates Thomas the
worst fielding third baseman of all time. JAY JOHNSTONE (1945-2020)
was a
utility outfielder, pinch hitter and DH who played 20 years in the Majors (1966-1985)
despite making 500 plate appearances only once. He appeared in five postseasons for
three teams (Phils, Yankees, Dodgers). He was on the 1978 World Champion Yankees team,
which beat the Dodgers in the Series; and on the 1981 Dodgers team, which whipped the
Yankees. The zany Johnstone was known for his practical jokes.
Charlie
Hayes
played shortstop (1993) and third base (1993-1994) for the
Colorado Rockies, leading the league in doubles in 1993 with 45.
Hayes, who
also covered the outfield, first base and second base and was a designated hitter over
his 14-season career, also played for the
San Francisco Giants
(1988-
1989, 1998-1999), the
Philadelphia Phillies
(1989-1991, 1995), the
New York Yankees
(1992, 1996-1997), the
Pittsburgh
Pirates
(1996), the
Milwaukee Brewers
(2000) and the
Houston Astros
(2001). Hayes was a member of the
1996 World
Champion New York Yankees where he caught Atlanta’s Mark Lemke’s foul pop for the final
out of the World Series.
Fine condition.
