I had them framed along with the Ripken Rookie cards I have.... I think I had a coupla those ... but back then, they were just cards!
The manager of the 1983 O's, Joe Altobelli, is "Mr. Baseball" here in Rochester.
He still does the color on the Red Wings radiocasts and is a joy to listen to.

Joe Altobelli went to Eastern High School in Detroit with my Uncle Joe. And then the Tigers beat the Padres the next year's World Series (1984). Last shot at the Tigers' glory.
