Here's Tigers righty Pat Dobson . . .
. . . wait a minute! That's a lefty pitcher. That can't be right.There, that's better. This is one of two instances of a card being corrected by Domino's. The first card features Jon Warden, who has is own card in the set.
Dobson had several good seasons, the kind of talent who was always good enough for other teams to be interested in, but not quite good enough for his own team to insist on holding on to. He was traded five times in his 11 seasons, despite winning 20 games for the Orioles in 1971 and 19 games for the Yankees in 1974. He had initially come up with the Tigers as a reliever, making three relief appearances in the 1968 World Series. Overall in 414 games for six teams over 11 seasons, Dobson went 122-129 with a 3.54 ERA. After his playing career he was a pitching coach and scout. He died of leukemia in 2006.
I have 15 of his cards, from 1968 to 1978. I would be interested in trading for 1967 Topps #526.


1976 SSPC is my favorite card of him.
