2004 SP Authentic #70 Mike Mussina Front

85. 2004 SP Authentic #70 Mike Mussina

Number 99

"Look at him this way: Mussina is a stats geek who didn't play for stats, a New York Yankee who loathed attention, a pitcher who finished Top 6 in the Cy Young voting nine times but never won the thing, a starter who took five no-hitters into the eighth inning but never threw a no-hitter, a guy who won 20 games for the first-time as a 39-year-old and promptly retired rather than go for 300 victories (he finished with 270). He made it to the Hall of Fame despite a bold unwillingness to do anything extra to improve his chances of making it to the Hall of Fame. In that way, he was the ultimate baseball mensch."
- Joe Posnanski, The Baseball 100. Pages 20-21.

Oscar Charleston cards are easier to find than Bullet Joe Rogan cards, I've found! I'm trying to get 9 of each player and it's going to be a challenge!
