1978 Topps Baseball #24 - Don Money


  • This would be the last season in which Don Money would play in over 100 games. Money played all over the place, seeing action at all four infield positions and at DH. Don made the AL All Star team for the last time in his career - he started at second base and was 0 for 2. George Brett called Money's selection a farce because at the time Don hadn't played much second base all season. Money started the game due to an injury to Willie Randolph. Don was the #2 vote-getter at the position.

  1. I did not get to see Don Money play before he retired in 1983, but I did have the opportunity to meet him and get an autograph while he was managing the Huntsville Stars.
