The worst baseball card picture ever?

I love the 1971 WS card of Robinson alone in the dirt smothering another Cincy potential hit. He was a man on an island no one could come close to his fielding in that Series. It's a dramatic photo I think.

To the original poster, the Schmidt is half of a photo with Harry Davis sliding in. I always thought it was cool that both cards were in the set.

That's cool, I never realized that.

Ditto. Especially as a kid, I marveled at how much ground Brooks was covering.
