Ok, so this past success is from homer Bush, not Simpson. But still cool. Homer Bush was a great role player for the 1998 Yankees. He hit 380 over 78 plate appearances - mostly in blow-outs or the occasional spot start. He also pinch ran a lot and I swear every time he came in he swiped a bag. He was traded to the Blue Jays in 1999 in the Clemens deal, and after hitting .320 his first year in Toronto, injuries derailed his career. He made a brief cameo for the 2004 Yanks before calling it quits.
Homer signed this card for me c/o the Yankees way back in 1998.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
