Bidding Under the Influence #16

 

Date: August 3, 2022
Time of Bid: 1:27:07 AM
Cards: 1966 Topps #192 Vic Power
Price: $0.99 (+$1.05 shipping)
What Was I Thinking?:
Vic has an all-time great baseball name.  Would he have been a more well-known player if he had spent his career with only one or two teams?  Very likely, though with 6 All-Star appearances for mediocre teams and a lifetime WAR of 15.3, well short of the Hall of Fame.  This is Power's final regular Topps card.

  1. Read something about Power a while back. He's the last MLB player to steal home twice in a game.
