This was also the set that first contained in-game action cards for players, which makes this Jeff McNeil offering seem so right.
Like many, my favorite memory of Harrelson was the 1973 NLCS and the play with Pete Rose. That by itself was memorable. But I watched that game with my mom, who didn't often sit down and watch the Mets. And the memory of the game and the fight is forever linked with my parent. It didn't necessarily mean that much in the moment. Rather, it's something that's taken on extra significance as the years have gone by. Today, it doesn't take long to hear Harrelson's name to start thinking about my mom. And that's a very nice thing.
