1988 Score #555 Phil Niekro

I was browsing through my scanned folders and came across this beauty...a 1988 Score Phil Neikro adorned in orange-outlined goodness.  A most deserved Hall of Famer who played for 4 teams across 3 decades.  Phil had the remarkable luck of being born on 1 April 1939 making this a perfect fit to share with the blogging world as well.  Everyone stay safe during this crazy month of April.

    What better day for a knuckleball pitcher to be born than April Fool's Day?
