Don Drysdale Baseball Cards

WORDS FROM & ABOUT
Don Drysdale

Pirates shortstop Dick Groat claimed �Batting against Don Drysdale is the same as making a date with the dentist.�

According to Orlando Cepeda: �The trick against Drysdale is to hit him before he hits you.�

Drysdale retired with (154) batters hit by a pitch, the modern baseball record.

Frank Robinson said "He was mean enough to do it, and he did it continuously. You could count on him doing it.

His next at-bat after hitting a HR and yelling 'Hey, batboy, come get the bat.'" Drysdale plunked Gene Oliver, yelling 'Hey, batboy, come get Oliver.'"

Don Drysdale twice hit seven home runs in a season, tying the record. NOTE:Ohtani it (7) in 2024.

He pitched (58) consecutive scoreless innings in 1968, breaking Walter Johnson's all-time Major League record.

Baseball, Football, Basketball & Hockey Memorabilia Cards

It's cool to have a card of your favorite player.
It's even cooler to have your favorite player's jersey or bat.
Well just think how cool it is to have a card of your favorite player embedded with a piece of his bat or jersey that he used in a real major league game !!!
That's the concept that Upper Deck dazzled the hobby with in 1996. Ever since the hobby has been in love with Game-Used memorabilia cards and they have become a staple of sportscard collecting. Originally they were very scarce inserts with less than 1 every few boxes. Now these insert cards are so popular that many products include one in every pack.
