2003 Topps
Carlos Baerga (2002)
A three-time All-Star and .300/20/100 guy at second base for the Indians in the early 90’s, the Red Sox invited Baerga to spring training after two years out of the Major Leagues. In fact, in 2001, Baerga played for the Long Island Ducks, toiled in Korea, and served as player-manager for a team in his native Puerto Rico.
He surprised and won many fans in Boston, batting .286 in part-time duty as a pinch hitter and DH.
