About Tommy Harper
Card #330, a fourth-series solo issue, is Harper's first card as an established Red. Its back reports the rookie year that earned it: a .260 average with 10 home runs, 37 RBI and 67 runs in 129 games, played mostly in right field. He hit the first of those homers on June 11, 1963, and that fall Topps named him to its postseason All-Star Rookie team alongside Reds second baseman Pete Rose.
Tommy Harper signed with Cincinnati in 1960, scouted by Bobby Mattick, and reached the majors in 1962 as a third baseman before moving to the outfield. Across 15 seasons (1962-1976) with the Reds, Indians, Pilots/Brewers, Red Sox, Angels, Athletics and Orioles he hit .257 with 1,609 hits, 146 home runs, 567 RBI and 408 stolen bases in 1,810 games. His signature season came in 1969, when he stole 73 bases for the expansion Seattle Pilots, the most by an American Leaguer since Ty Cobb's 96 in 1915. In 1970 with Milwaukee he became the fifth major leaguer to join the 30-30 club (31 home runs, 38 steals) and made his only All-Star team. He led the league again in 1973 with 54 steals, a Red Sox record that stood until 2009, and was voted the club's Most Valuable Player. Known as "Tailwind Tommy," he later coached for Boston and Montreal and entered the Red Sox Hall of Fame in 2010. He is not a National Baseball Hall of Fame inductee.
