Bruce Fields Autographed 1987 Donruss #47 Rated Rookie Detroit Tigers Card

Add a classic Rated Rookie card of Bruce Fields with this 1987 Donruss #47, personally autographed by the Detroit Tigers outfielder. Fields is correctly cataloged as card #47 in the set and is part of Donruss' popular Rated Rookie subset.

The 1987 Donruss Rated Rookie lineup is one of the most recognizable groups of the era. Fields appears alongside an impressive run of young players that includes Benito Santiago, Greg Maddux, Bo Jackson, Devon White, Rafael Palmeiro, Mark McGwire and Will Clark. Fields' #47 immediately follows McGwire's famous Rated Rookie #46 in the checklist.

Fields earned the designation after an outstanding 1986 season with the Triple-A Nashville Sounds in the Detroit organization. He batted an exceptional .368 with a .431 on-base percentage and .483 slugging percentage, collecting 141 hits, 31 doubles, five triples and 22 stolen bases in 116 games.

That performance earned Fields his first opportunity in the Major Leagues. He made his MLB debut with the Detroit Tigers on September 3, 1986, making this 1987 Donruss card one of his first nationally distributed Major League cards.

There is also an interesting hobby wrinkle associated with this card: some cataloging identifies Darnell Coles as the player pictured on Fields' #47, making it an uncorrected error (UER) in addition to its Rated Rookie status. That combination gives the card added appeal for collectors of errors, variations and 1980s Rated Rookies.
