The back: Bob Kennedy played sixteen years in the major leagues, and won a World Series with Cleveland in 1948. Bob Kennedy Jr. pitched in the Cardinals organization from 1971 to 1975, never getting above A ball.
The player: Catcher Terry Kennedy played fourteen seasons in the major leagues, hitting .264 with 113 HR and 628 RBI. A four-time All-Star, he was a key member of two NL pennant winners in the 1980's, the Padres in 1984 and the Giants in 1989.
The man: Kennedy was a long-time minor league manager and coach, and is currently a scout for the Cubs. He shared his thoughts on baseball cards with this blog in 2014.
My collection: I have 77 of his cards, from 1979 to 1992. I would be interested in trading for 1982 Fleer Stamps #105.
This is a nice photo.
