Box Score Game Card (1950) – RBFL0064

Box Score Game Card: RBFL0064
Card Date: June 8, 1950
Autograph(s): Johnny Pesky (D); Bobby Doer (D) – HOF; Walt Dropo (D); Matt Batts (D).
Grade Value: V1

Significance of autograph (v-valuable):
Twenty-nine runs in one game, at the time, was an MLB record and later tied in 1955 by the White Sox.  And Walt Dropo played in both games.  Obviously, Bobby Doerr’s autograph is valuable, but Johnny Pesky’s may even be more valuable because he was Mr. Red Sox!  They even named a foul pole (Fenway Park) after him.  As for Dropo … what a day!   Actually, everybody had a great day, including Sox Matt Batts, who wasn’t a regular.
