About Mickey Mantle
Mantle came back healthy for 1964: .303, 35 home runs, 111 runs batted in and a league-best .423 on-base percentage, then a .333 World Series whose three home runs carried him past Babe Ruth to a record 18, as St. Louis took the seventh game. Two leaders cards open his 1965 set, #3 behind Harmon Killebrew and Boog Powell in home runs and #5 in runs batted in with Killebrew, Brooks Robinson and Dick Stuart. Series-four #350 is the card the set is built around.
Mickey Charles Mantle was born in Spavinaw, Oklahoma, on October 20, 1931, and raised in Commerce, where his father Mutt, a semipro player, named him for catcher Mickey Cochrane and taught him to switch-hit: lefty against his father, righty against his grandfather. Yankees scout Tom Greenwade signed him out of Commerce High School in 1949, and he reached New York in 1951 at nineteen, taking over center field the next spring when Joe DiMaggio retired. The Mick won the 1956 Triple Crown, leading the majors in batting average (.353), home runs (52) and runs batted in (130), and was American League Most Valuable Player in 1956, 1957 and 1962. He led the league in home runs four times, was picked for 20 All-Star Games across 16 seasons, and won a Gold Glove in 1962. Playing on a knee he tore in the 1951 World Series and legs that never came back, he still reached twelve World Series, won seven, and holds Series records for home runs (18), runs (42), runs batted in (40), walks (43) and total bases (123). He finished in 1968 with 536 home runs and a .298 average, and the Yankees retired his number 7. He was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1974, first ballot, with 88.2 percent of the vote.
