Featuring Von Hayes with the Philadelphia Phillies, this Von Hayes autographed 1985 Donruss #326 Philadelphia Phillies card showcases the versatile left-handed hitter during the early portion of his productive tenure in Philadelphia. Hayes developed into one of the Phillies' most consistent offensive players during the 1980s, contributing with power, speed and the ability to play both the outfield and first base.
Hayes began his Major League career with the Cleveland Indians in 1981 before joining Philadelphia in a multi-player trade following the 1982 season. In his first year with the Phillies, he helped the club capture the 1983 National League pennant and advance to the World Series against Baltimore.
One of Hayes' most memorable accomplishments came on June 11, 1985, when he became the first player in Major League history to hit two home runs in the first inning of a game. Hayes led off the inning against the New York Mets with a home run and later added a grand slam as Philadelphia scored nine runs in the opening frame.
His finest all-around season came in 1986, when Hayes batted .305 with 46 doubles, 19 home runs, 98 RBI and 24 stolen bases. He led the National League with 107 runs scored and 46 doubles while establishing career highs in several offensive categories.
Hayes earned his lone National League All-Star selection in 1989, when he hit a career-high 26 home runs while adding 28 doubles, 78 RBI and 21 stolen bases. He finished his 12-season Major League career with 1,402 hits, 143 home runs, 696 RBI and 253 stolen bases. The 1985 Donruss #326 is an appealing addition for Phillies collectors, Von Hayes fans, 1983 National League championship collections, 1980s Donruss collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
