Default Trophy Card Trivia Question

Postwar Baseball Cards (pre-1980): 9 guys had Rookie Trophy cards and appeared on League Leader card(s)... in the same set. You are on the clock. Go.

65 Oliva, I think he has a 63 trophy because it's his first full card, and he likely is on batting leaders.

Fred Lynn had a super rookie year so I will guess 76 Lynn as well.

Along the same lines, Firdrych, so 77 Fidrych. Now up to 80 in my mind and that's all I got.

I mean most of the leaders cards have one or more HOF or at least clear stars. But Chance, Peters, Bunker, Pizarro and Wickersham, ouch.

Your picture doesn't show up (at least on the computer I'm using). I'm curious as to what card this is (Guess Clemente Mays, Aaron 1966)?

I'll guess Jim Gentile who had that big HR year early in his career. Not sure if the card would be 61 or 62. I'll say 62.

Gentile not the answer, though a good guess. Had there been an RBI Leader card in 1961 set, Gentile would have been on it.

Barely missed being on the ERA Leader card in '69, but Kooz never appeared on a leader card (69 Kooz my all time favorite card though).

Yikes. One of the great nicknames though, even if it was sort of obvious. Two excellent seasons then not much.
