Sixto Lezcano Autographed 1980 Topps #215 Milwaukee Brewers Card

Featuring Sixto Lezcano with the Milwaukee Brewers, this Sixto Lezcano autographed 1980 Topps #215 Milwaukee Brewers card showcases the talented right fielder immediately following the finest offensive season of his Major League career.

A native of Puerto Rico, Lezcano made his Major League debut with the Brewers in 1974 and became a regular in Milwaukee's outfield the following season. Combining power with an outstanding throwing arm and strong defensive play, he developed into one of the American League's better all-around right fielders.

Lezcano enjoyed a career year in 1979, batting .321 with 164 hits, 28 home runs, 101 RBI and a .987 OPS. He ranked among the American League leaders in several offensive categories and earned the first Gold Glove Award of his career for his defensive work in right field.

One of Lezcano's unusual accomplishments came on Opening Day. He hit a grand slam on Opening Day in both 1978 and 1980, becoming the first player in Major League history to accomplish the feat twice.

Lezcano later played for the St. Louis Cardinals, San Diego Padres, Philadelphia Phillies and Pittsburgh Pirates. He earned a second Gold Glove with Philadelphia in 1984 and finished his 12-season Major League career with 148 home runs and 591 RBI. The 1980 Topps #215 is an appealing addition for Brewers collectors, Sixto Lezcano fans, Puerto Rican baseball collections, vintage Topps collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
