Lonnie Smith Autographed 1982 Donruss #606 Philadelphia Phillies Card

Featuring Lonnie Smith with the Philadelphia Phillies, this Lonnie Smith autographed 1982 Donruss #606 Philadelphia Phillies card showcases the speedy outfielder who helped Philadelphia capture its first World Series championship before becoming one of the National League's most exciting offensive players.

The Phillies selected Smith in the third round of the 1974 MLB Draft, and he made his Major League debut in 1978. His outstanding speed, aggressive baserunning and ability to make consistent contact helped him earn a place in Philadelphia's outfield.

Smith enjoyed a remarkable 1980 rookie season, batting .339 with 69 runs scored and 33 stolen bases in 100 games. His performance earned him a third-place finish in National League Rookie of the Year voting and helped Philadelphia capture the National League East championship.

He contributed to the Phillies' postseason success as Philadelphia defeated the Houston Astros in the National League Championship Series and the Kansas City Royals in the World Series. The 1980 championship was the first in Phillies franchise history, giving Smith his first World Series ring.

Following the 1981 season, Smith was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals, where he enjoyed the finest individual season of his career in 1982. He batted .307 with 182 hits, a National League-leading 120 runs scored and 68 stolen bases, earning his only All-Star selection and finishing second in National League Most Valuable Player voting.

Smith helped St. Louis win the 1982 World Series, giving him a second championship in three seasons. He later joined the Kansas City Royals and contributed to their 1985 World Series championship, becoming a three-time World Series winner with three different franchises.

Over 17 Major League seasons, Smith collected 1,488 hits, stole 370 bases and compiled a .288 career batting average. He also played an important role on the Atlanta Braves teams that reached the World Series in 1991 and 1992.

The 1982 Donruss #606 is an appealing addition for Philadelphia Phillies collectors, Lonnie Smith fans, 1980 World Series championship collections, early Donruss enthusiasts or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
