1982 Topps Appreciation:  Topps did a great job capturing the only three players to have started games at second base for the Phillies during the strike-shortened 1981 season.  Manny Trillo started 93 games, Luis Aguayo started 13 and Ramon Aviles started 1 game.

Trillo (147) and Aguayo (11) saw the bulk of the playing time at second base for the Phillies again in 1982, with the newly acquired Dave Roberts also getting 4 starts.

  1. "Phillies texting gloves"? Is anyone going to wear these?

    When I was nine, I went to the ballpark and got a FULL-SIZE baseball bat!

  2. I probably will. Seems like the Phillies do a good job of keeping their giveaways relevant for the times.
