Tom was one of a steady stream of outfield prospects the Dodgers always seemed to have in the '70s who eventually went on to have some success with other organizations. Tom's best years were with Seattle and Chicago in the early '80s, with three straight years of double figures in homers, and also three straight years of a .300+ batting average. He's pictured here during his prospect days, on 1975 Topps. More cards are pictured underneath the stats box.

This is a list of the cards of this player that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity prior to my divestiture.  The cards listed in white text are the ones that still remained until that final deal.  Items listed in green I kept out of the deal, just so I'd have something to display in my office and den.  At the bottom and listed in orange text are cards that I picked up after the dealing was done, in order to maintain a certain continuity at this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the top of the page, and maybe in the autographs and game-used areas.  If an orange card is struck through, it has also departed the collection.  I’m still accepting donations, should you feel so moved.  Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
