The 1989 Score 100 Rising Stars set is a 100-card factory-set exclusive that spotlights many of baseball's brightest young talents and emerging stars. Featuring the same high-quality photography and colorful design elements that made Score one of the hobby's most popular brands of the late 1980s, the set includes many players who would go on to become All-Stars and award winners. Tom Gordon appears as card #68 with the Kansas City Royals, recognized as one of the game's top young pitching prospects entering his rookie season.
Tom Gordon enjoyed an outstanding 21-year Major League career with the Kansas City Royals, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, Houston Astros, Chicago White Sox, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, and Arizona Diamondbacks. Nicknamed "Flash," Gordon successfully evolved from a frontline starting pitcher into one of baseball's premier closers. A three-time All-Star, 1998 American League Rolaids Relief Man Award winner, and owner of 138 victories, 158 saves, and 1,928 strikeouts, Gordon became one of the few pitchers in Major League history to excel in both starting and relief roles.
Issued during Gordon's rookie season, this 1989 Score 100 Rising Stars card highlights the tremendous expectations surrounding one of the Royals' top young arms. Personally signed by Tom Gordon, it is an outstanding collectible for Kansas City Royals fans, Score collectors, prospect enthusiasts, and autograph collectors.
