The story on this card
1965 Topps #107 is a Rookie Stars card shared with fellow Phillies catching prospect Costen Shockley. It captures Corrales just as he stepped into regular duty, taking over the Phillies' primary catching job when veteran Gus Triandos was sold to Houston in June; he played a career-high 63 games that year, hitting .224 with two home runs, and was named to the Topps All-Rookie team. A steady defensive catcher who backed up stars like Johnny Bench during a nine-year playing career, Pat Corrales went on to manage three major-league clubs over parts of nine more seasons.
Traded to the Angels that winter in the deal that sent Bo Belinsky to Philadelphia, Shockley opened 1965 in the lineup on Opening Day against Cleveland. He delivered the biggest moment of his career on May 4, a bases-loaded homer off Boston's Dave Morehead, then added one off Minnesota's Camilo Pascual. A June demotion to Seattle ended his major-league career when he refused to report. Topps' 1965 second series pictures him as a Phillie in a Rookie Stars subset card shared with Pat Corrales; it is his rookie card. Delaware-born first baseman who homered in his second big-league game for the Phillies, was later traded to the Angels for Bo Belinsky, and walked away from baseball at 23 to keep his family together.
