Kevin Stocker Autographed 1997 Upper Deck #456 Philadelphia Phillies Card

Featuring Kevin Stocker with the Philadelphia Phillies, this Kevin Stocker autographed 1997 Upper Deck #456 Philadelphia Phillies card showcases the shortstop during his fifth and final season with the organization.

The Phillies selected Stocker in the second round of the 1991 MLB Draft out of the University of Washington, and he made his Major League debut on July 7, 1993. Stocker immediately took over as Philadelphia's starting shortstop and provided a significant midseason boost to a club headed toward the postseason.

Stocker made an impressive transition to the Major Leagues, batting .324 with a .409 on-base percentage and 70 hits in 70 regular-season games as a rookie. He remained the Phillies' starting shortstop throughout the postseason as Philadelphia defeated Atlanta in the NLCS and advanced to the 1993 World Series against Toronto.

He continued as Philadelphia's regular shortstop over the following seasons, appearing in 107 games in 1994 and 144 games in 1995. Stocker remained with the Phillies through the 1997 season, when he appeared in 138 games and collected a career-high 129 hits.

Following the season, Stocker was selected by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in the 1997 MLB Expansion Draft, becoming part of the franchise's inaugural 1998 roster. He played eight Major League seasons with the Phillies, Devil Rays and Angels. The 1997 Upper Deck #456 is an appealing addition for Philadelphia Phillies collectors, Kevin Stocker fans, 1993 National League championship collections or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
