Featuring Larry Parrish with the Texas Rangers, this Larry Parrish autographed 1987 Donruss Opening Day #173 Texas Rangers card comes from the inaugural Donruss Opening Day set. The issue captures the veteran power hitter during one of his most productive seasons with Texas.
Parrish began his Major League career with the Montreal Expos in 1974 and developed into one of the National League's top power-hitting third basemen. In 1979, he enjoyed a standout season, batting .307 with 30 home runs and 82 RBI while earning an All-Star selection and a Silver Slugger Award.
After joining Texas in 1982, Parrish remained a consistent source of power in the Rangers lineup. He produced an especially strong season in 1984, hitting 22 home runs with 101 RBI and earning his second career All-Star selection.
Parrish was still a dangerous power hitter in 1987, when he belted a career-high 32 home runs and drove in 100 runs for Texas. It was the third 100-RBI season of his Major League career and gave him his second 30-home run campaign.
Over 15 Major League seasons with Montreal, Texas and Boston, Parrish accumulated 1,789 hits, 256 home runs and 992 RBI. The 1987 Donruss Opening Day #173 is an appealing addition for Rangers collectors, Larry Parrish fans, Donruss Opening Day set collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
