Holland was the key to the deal for the Phillies. Inserted into the closer's role in 1983, he solidified the back-end of the bullpen that had been in flux since Tug McGraw's success a few years' prior. Mr. T saved 25 games in 1983 and had a fantastic ERA of 2.26. He struck out Bill Russell to clinch the 1983 N.L. pennant and jumped into Mike Schmidt's arms to start the on-field celebration.
Davis is featured on the card I most coveted during the summer of 1982, as Bob Dernier had emerged as my favorite baseball player. I have yet to tell the story on this blog of how I ended up playing catch with Dernier before a Phillies game, and it's a story I'll need to share at some point.
