1981 Topps Tom Poquette

The front: Looks like spring training, with the small metal bleachers and wooded area behind the outfield fence.

The back: Poquette played high school ball at Memorial High School in Eau Claire, WI.

The player: Poquette missed all of 1980 with a rotator cuff injury. The career backup had brief appearances with the Red Sox and Rangers in 1981 and the Royals in 1982 before retiring.

The man: Poquette was a minor league coach in the Royals organization for many years but is now retired.

My collection: I have seven of his cards, from 1975 to 1982. I would be interested in trading for 1978 SSPC #239.
