The one game managerial career of Elrod Hendricks was on May 18, but he signed this card the next day when Frank Robinson is credited with being the manager.
The last of the 8 games that Duffy Dyer managed, and his only one with the A's, also the first career win for Jose Bautista. Last edited by doug.goodman; 02-02-2023 at 11:06 PM. |

I checked the Orioles '89 Media Guide and saw that Elrod twice substituted for Frank that season...4 games from May 18-20 (where yours fits in) and again from July 15-28. In June 1985, after Joe Altobelli was dismissed and Earl was re-hired, Cal Ripken Sr. was "interim" manager for one game (which he was credited for) while Earl made his way north to meet the club. So this was technically Sr.'s MLB managerial debut:

Your Orioles lineup card collection is super impressive! How many do you have? Did you mostly pick these up one at a time, or acquire a large collection at some point? |

Coming from you that's high praise! I probably have 100 or so and I've been mainly collecting them one at a time (shows, SCD, eBay, auctions, etc.) for the past 30 plus years..... I realize this isn't a lineup card per se (but is somewhat related), so with the Super Bowl over & Patrick Mahomes being named the MVP, I thought I'd share this... Back in '94 as Cal Ripken Jr. was approaching his 2000th consecutive games (which would make him only the 2nd player in MLB history to do so), I wrote a letter to Tom Mee, who was the Official Scorer of the Twins and asked him if he could please send me the Press Box Notes from the game. Not only did he send me the notes BUT he also included his original scoresheets from the game (which I was thrilled to receive). The starting pitcher for the Twins that night was one Pat Mahomes, who pitched a strong eight innings in a losing cause... I later professionally matted/framed the score sheets with an original picture from the Minneapolis Star Review, a signed game ticket & an original AP teletype of the event: ![]() ![]()
