Year: 1990

“ Bill Pullman looks confused as to why he's on a baseball card under the name "Jeff Ballard." ” -Theron_Nett

“ Jeff looks so puzzled- like he's rethinking his entire life choices. Or maybe he's just confused why his name and team name is in such small print on the bottom of this card... ” -jdogg1228

“ I hated the "real bird" caps that the Orioles once wore. Cartoon bird is far superior. ” -hiflew

“ What company do you work for? Bowman. Who? (Snaps photo). ” -Tscastle

“ One of the most dull, badly photographed, poorly manufactured sets ever. Even by Bowman standards, it is the definition of mediocre. ” -hamrlik22

“ Ooooo! I got picked for TCDB RCotD! ” -YoRicha

“ Nice O's card from a nice overlooked set from the super overproduced years. ” -captkirk42

“ Too bad the car wreck ended his career early!!! ” -tinyshogun

“ Love those classic O's hats. ” -Papayanz

“ 1990 gumless bubble blowing champion ” -jackal726

“ No doubt that this was Jeff Ballard's reaction to seeing someone get a line drive in the nether region. ” -myrke

“ We have to bring back stats against teams on cards ” -SuperJTB2015

“ Judging by his expression, he either just saw a very pretty lady or just saw someone get struck out harshly. ” -lildog7

“ The look of a guy who's about to go 2-11 that year. ” -tenlbpain

I have the biggest collection of Jeff Ballard cards on here - so was a bit surprised to see his face pop up on here.

He's from my original hometown of Billings, MT. He's well known around there and I met him a few times, he's even flipped through my own collection and donated this card to me that we had to find a way to get into the TCDB database (https://www.tcdb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/S/ID/256210/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=33707&C=12)

When it was first brought back, Bowman was fun because they used a bunch of spring training photos and in many cases it was the first card of someone with a new team. Not great sets by any means, but fun in their own way.

"Holy crap! It's you! I loved you in 'Spaceballs' and 'Independence Day!'" JEFF: Huh? "Aaron, stop making a fool of yourself. That's obviously not Bill Pullman. It's that guy from 'Tron' and 'Babylon 5!'" JEFF: ...... [P.S. - In addition to the likenesses of Pullman and Bruce Boxleitner, I do see the similarities to Owen Wilson now that that's been pointed out.]
