FREE: Phil Garner 1985 Topps Houston Astros

The listing, Phil Garner 1985 Topps Houston Astros has ended.

On September 15, 1978, Garner became one of only a handful of Major League players to hit a grand slam in consecutive games.
Garner, when playing for the Oakland Athletics, got the club's 10,000th hit, doing so on June 27, 1975 on a double off Andy Hassler in Anaheim. [11]
Garner is one of only five managers to have won a league pennant without ever having won a division title (Clint Hurdle, Dave Martinez, Jack McKeon, and Bobby Valentine are the others).[12]
Garner has been involved in some of the longest post-season games in the history of baseball.

In the 1986 NLCS, the 16-inning loss to the New York Mets on October 15, 1986, Garner was the starting third baseman for the Astros, going 1-for-3, before being replaced by a pinch-hitter.
In the 2005 NLDS against the Atlanta Braves, he was the Astros' manager in their 18-inning victory on October 9, 2005.
Two weeks later in the 2005 World Series, he managed the Astros for the longest World Series game in length of time (five hours and forty-one minutes). The Chicago White Sox won the game, 7-5 in the 14th inning (tied for longest by innings).
