More Quizzes To Take While The Mets are in Cleveland

Let's play hall of famers from the 1978 Topps baseball set. Because this still beats Cleveland, even with the Mets comfortably ahead. And because I loved that '78 set. Elegant simplicity. Action shots that bring you within a hair's length of the action. And the thickest cardboard I ever got to own, to that date, from packs I bought and opened. I'll start. Nolan Ryan. One guess per post.

This one was tricky. Brooks retired after the '77 season and announced his retirement early enough so as to remove any doubt. Thus, there was no way Topps would've given Brooks a '78 card. They never did that for any other retired stars. But Brooks snuck in on one of those record breaker cards.
