'59 Topps Friday Cards 367-373: Pete Runnels Turned His Career Around Thanks to Ted Williams
We built the iconic 1959 Topps baseball set, and in this series, we’re going through every card to talk about the players, teams and people who made up major league baseball in 1959.
Today, we'll cover cards 367 through 373 in the set. This includes two-time AL batting champion Pete Runnels, who turns his career around once he got to Boston and went under the wing of Ted Williams. We also cover longtime Indians catcher Jim Hegan, the tough-to-strikeout Don Mueller and more.
