Year: 1987

Set: TCMA Richmond Braves (Rate)

Card: #29 Sam Ayoub


“ I always like seeing cards of those that work behind the scenes. ” -Mscott713

“ TOWEL!!!! ” -Gunny

“ This card is great in almost every way to me. First it is Braves, secondly it's a minor league card, thirdly it's a trainer getting his own card and fourthly it's Sam Ayoub. I don't know why but every time I get a Sam Ayoub card in a minor league team set I am happy. He was a long time Braves trainer and just always seemed to be there without much credit, but reading about him, he just seemed like a nice guy. The only issue I have with this card is the odd size but I will forgive it with so many pros. ” -davidhandberry

“ Interesting logo location on the jacket. This is quite a 29-card set. Some great names, including Bean Stringfellow, Trench Davis, and Tom Glavine. The groundskeeper got a card, too. ” -vanstryland

“ Nice Minor League card. My first thought on this one was "Who does he look like"? a young Abe Vigoda? Joe Torre? Don Mossi after an Earbob? ” -captkirk42

“ Isn't this the guy who played "Monk"? ” -NJDevils

“ For a second I thought it was Abe Vigoda! ” -DocOso

“ Hit the showers, Sam. ” -mkaz80

“ I always why the trainer gets a card in the minors and you never see one in the majors. ” -kirkscards

“ Nice to see a trainer get some recognition. ” -muskie027

I like seeing staff on cards. What is really nice is that these guys love them too and will usually sign one if you have it. 

ps. Does anyone else see the resemblance of “Fish” from Barney Miller or is it just me.

Sam has to have the record for most cards of a trainer.  The database has 15!

This guy has obviously read Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Gotta have that towel.
