Fosse had a slightly better average and more power/slugging, especially before his collision with Rose. He hit only 2 hrs for season afterwards. Makes me wonder what might have been had the Rose incident not happened. <br /><br />This is one of my favorite cards of the 71 set. The adjusting shin guards pose fits well with Fosse's "bearing my teeth" expression. In subsequent cards, I thought of him as one of the least photogenic baseball players. Sorry, Ray it had to be said.
