Description

A great addition to your baseball card collection, a Dave Winfield autographed Yankees Baseball card. In 1981, New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner made headlines by signing Winfield to a 10-year, $23 million contract, making him the game's highest-paid player. Winfield was one of the best players in the game throughout the life of the contract. He hit 37 home runs in a spectacular 1982 season and batted .340, second in the league to teammate Don Mattingly, in 1984. He drove in 744 runs between 1982 and 1988, won five Gold Glove Awards for his stellar outfield play and was named to the All-Star Game every season. On one occasion, Winfield hit a ball so hard that it carried out of Anaheim Stadium for a home run despite that fact that it was hit so low that California Angels shortstop Dick Schofield reportedly actually leaped up in an attempt to catch it.
