Hobby is golf: Topps.com is auctioning a golf experience with Bret Saberhagen at the Pebble Beach Golf Club. Current bid is $8,995.00.
Favorite sports announcer is Al Michaels: Michaels was the
announcer for the 1985 World Series that Saberhagen was the MVP of.
Favorite player as a kid was Billy Williams: Saberhagen grew
up in the Chicago area, a Cubs fan I guess.
Most prized possession is his 1985 World Series ring:
Saberhagen auctioned off the ring in 2013.
Might have been a fire fighter if he hadn’t been an athlete:
Saberhagen did not go into firefighting after his baseball career.
Pet peeve is giving up runs after having just scored: Good
one for a pitcher. A better one would be giving up runs at all.
Where he is now: The Bret Saberhagen Make a Difference Foundation is a child-focused charity.
I'm enjoying these posts, it's a fun and unique idea to update the info from these cards. The bit about his WS ring really struck me. Did he need the money?
