Steve Blass 3/3 1.5 weeks (1970, 1972, & 1973 Topps)
c/o home

I especially like the 1972 Topps 7th game of the '71 World Series card. Blass was on top of his game that day. The young right hander out dueled not one, not two, but three 20 game winners, when he held the mighty Orioles bats to only 4 hits in a series clinching 2-1 complete game win. I remember watching that game in our family room. It truly was his finest hour. One of the best pitched ball games I ever saw, and one of the grittiest.
 
Congrats! I got to meet him a few weeks ago at the Charleston Charlie's reunion. He was a super great guy to talk to.
 
Congrats! The 7th Game of the 1971 World Series is one of my favorite games of all time. The Pirates scored 2 runs, both driven in by players I collect: #1, by an RBI double by Jose Pagan and #2, a solo HR by Clemente.
