The front: Simple headshot at an empty Tiger Stadium.
The back: When looking at his stats, I thought to myself “He
must have been very popular in Evansville”. I didn’t know how right I was – he
married a sportswriter for the Evansville
Press, Anne Harter.
The player: Tobik was almost exclusively a reliever for the
Tigers, Rangers and Mariners from 1978 to 1985. In 196 games he went 14-23 with
28 saves and a 3.70 ERA.
The man: For the past 27 years he has been an account
manager at FormStore, a St. Louis-based print communications company. He has
also been involved in numerous charitable endeavors.
My collection: I have 11 of his cards, from 1979 to 1984. I
would be interested in trading for 1983 Affiliated Food Stores Texas Rangers
#41.
