Bruce Fields Autographed 1994 Fleer ProCards #1041 Toledo Mud Hens Card HC

Add another excellent coaching-era minor league issue to a comprehensive Bruce Fields collection with this 1994 Fleer ProCards #1041 Toledo Mud Hens card, personally autographed by the former Major League outfielder and longtime professional baseball coach.

Beckett confirms Fields as card #1041 in the 1994 Toledo Mud Hens Fleer/ProCards set. Trading Card Database catalogs the card with the HC designation, representing Fields in his role as a hitting coach.

The card comes from Fields' second consecutive season as hitting coach for the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens. After concluding a 14-season professional playing career, Fields began his coaching career in the Detroit Tigers organization with Double-A London in 1992 before moving to Toledo for the 1993 and 1994 seasons.

The 1994 Toledo Mud Hens were Detroit's Triple-A affiliate in the International League. Fields served as hitting coach alongside pitching coach Jeff Jones, while Joe Sparks and Larry Parrish both managed the club during the season.

This card is an especially nice companion to Fields' 1993 Fleer ProCards #1668 HC. Together, the two cards document his first stint on Toledo's coaching staff and the beginning of what became a lengthy career in player development and instruction.

Following the 1994 season, Fields moved into managing in Detroit's minor league system. He eventually returned to Toledo as the Mud Hens' manager in 2001 and 2002, leading the club to the International League West Division championship in 2002. He was then promoted to become the Detroit Tigers' Major League hitting coach beginning in 2003.
