The 1989 Score baseball set is a 660-card release known for its colorful full-bleed photography, crisp white borders, and detailed statistical backs. As one of the hobby's most popular sets of the late 1980s, it features an outstanding rookie class that includes Ken Griffey Jr., Randy Johnson, Gary Sheffield, Craig Biggio, John Smoltz, and Tom Gordon. Gordon appears as Rookie Prospect #634, one of his most widely collected mainstream rookie cards.
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 reinvented himself from an accomplished starting pitcher into one of baseball's premier closers. A three-time All-Star and 1998 American League Rolaids Relief Man Award winner, Gordon finished his career with 138 victories, 158 saves, and 1,928 strikeouts, becoming one of the rare pitchers in Major League history to record at least 100 wins and 100 saves.
Issued during Gordon's rookie season with the Royals, this 1989 Score Rookie Prospect card captures one of baseball's brightest young arms just as he was beginning a remarkable Major League career.
