As a life-long Boston fan, I have individual player collections of Dwight Evans and Jim Rice, along with a guy who in many ways has become my favorite Sox of all time - Tim Wakefield.

I also collect one other guy - George Will wrote a column in the Washington Post (my local paper at the time) about 30 years ago about a player he suggested epitomized professionalism and dedication to craft in baseball, and who referred to himself simply as a 'professional catcher' - Jamie Quirk. I was so impressed I followed Oakland box scores during the last couple years of his career to see how he was doing. Never met the guy, don't know all that much about him - but the fact he hung on and kept contributing long after many others would have hung it up impressed me greatly. So, I also have a Jamie Quirk collection.
