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 187-193. We talk about Bill Virdon, a stalwart anchor of the outfield of the 1960 World Champion Pittsburgh Pirates, who would later manage in MLB for years. Learn what Roberto Clemente had to say. We also cover Puerto Rican baseball hero Juan Pizarro and more.
Do you have a story about one of these people, teams or players to share? Let us know in the comments!
