1994 Triple Play #90
















Card Review: 9.1  I like this '94 Triple Play design.  What I like even more is that Wallach was given his own card in '94 after being relegated to a card with two other new acquisitions by the Dodgers in the '93 Triple Play set.  Full career stats are always welcome on the back of a card.

Number of this card in my collection: 6

1993 Triple Play #253


Card Review: 0.9  This card would have been a welcomed event, had there been a regular 1993 Triple Play Tim Wallach.  There wasn't.  This was the only Wallach issued by Triple Play in 1993.

Fun Facts: Tim Wallach had 346 hits, 48 home-runs, 200 RBI's and 65 doubles with the Dodgers.
*Jody Reed had 123 hits, 2 home-runs, and 31 RBI's with the Dodgers
*Todd Worrell had a record of 17-19 with a 3.91 ERA and 123 saves with the Dodgers

1992 Triple Play #224




















Card Review: 8.8 I remember really liking these cards when they came out.  I still kind of do.  It's a horrible photo, saved only by the fact that the name and number are so well displayed, which creates a kind of cool effect.  The cropping makes me a little dizzy, however.  While it was certainly different, I think it would be an easier card to look at if they hadn't gone with the slanted photo box.  Thankfully, the photo itself is squared with the card.

Fun Facts: Wallach led NL 3rd basemen in "range factor/9inn" in 1992 (whatever that is)
* Wallach was 4th in the NL in hit by pitches with 8 in 1992
*I'm pretty sure that's Gary Carter catching in this picture.  Carter also appears in Wallach's '92 Donruss (who makes Triple Play).  This picture is probably from the same at-bat.
