Tommie was a reserve outfielder for five
teams, if you count the A's twice. He played for them in Kansas City from
1963-5, and then, separated by his season with the Mets and some
time in the minors, joined the A's again in Oakland in 1969. Following
his playing career, he was a longtime coach in both the minor and major
leagues. The card pictured here is from the 1965 Topps set. A card from his
best season in the majors is offered below, as well as one depicting him as a
minor-league manager. From his obituary we
learned the following: “He was a family man, a man of integrity, and a man of
grace. He had a giving heart and went above and beyond to help others. Although
he was a father to only two children, he was a father figure to many people,
opening up his home and providing shelter to others.” He also served many years as a deacon in his home
church.

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.
