1970 Topps #140 Reggie Jackson
About Reggie Jackson
Jackson had 34 home runs by July 5, 1969. His 1970 Topps appearances included first-series RBI leaders #64 with Harmon Killebrew and Boog Powell, and home run leaders #66 with Killebrew and Frank Howard. His Oakland base card was second-series #140; All-Stars card #459 belonged to the fourth series. A May 1970 slump brought a demotion threat from Charlie Finley, and Jackson finished that season at .237 with 23 home runs.
Reggie Jackson was a left-handed-hitting outfielder and designated hitter who played 21 major-league seasons. A 14-time All-Star, he batted .262 with 2,584 hits. He hit 563 home runs and drove in 1,702 runs, and his 2,597 strikeouts set the major-league career record for a batter. Kansas City selected him second overall from Arizona State in the 1966 draft; he debuted in 1967 and moved with the Athletics to Oakland the next year. He was a member of Oakland's 1972-74 World Series championship clubs and the Yankees' 1977-78 champions. In 1973 he led the American League with 32 home runs and 117 RBI, winning its MVP award unanimously and the World Series MVP award. Known as 'Mr. October,' he also played for Baltimore and California before returning to Oakland for his final season in 1987. He entered the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1993 on his first ballot.
