1968 Topps #541 Sandy Alomar
About Sandy Alomar
Alomar's 1968 Topps card, #541, is another high number, from the seventh series, and shows him with the Chicago White Sox. He became a regular for the first time that year, playing 133 games mostly at second base and also at third base, and raised his average to .253 with 12 RBIs and 41 runs.
Santos "Sandy" Alomar signed with the Milwaukee Braves organization in 1960 and reached the major leagues in September 1964. A switch-hitter who threw right-handed, he was valued for his speed and glove work across the infield, playing shortstop, second base and third base through stops with the Braves, Mets and White Sox before settling in as the California Angels' everyday second baseman in 1969. Over a 15-year career he appeared in 1,481 games, batting .245 with 13 home runs, 282 RBIs and 227 stolen bases, and he earned a berth on the 1970 American League All-Star team. After his playing days he coached and managed in winter ball, the minor leagues and the majors. His sons Sandy Alomar Jr. and Roberto Alomar both went on to become major league All-Stars.
