HOF photobombs

by dilemma19 - 58 cards (Last updated on Feb 14, 2024)



28. 1976 Topps #284 Steve Ontiveros


So long Mike Schmidt! I'm heading home.


27. 1992 Upper Deck #705 Kurt Stillwell


You're out Mr. Wizard!


26. 1992 Upper Deck #269 Dick Schofield


The ball is waiting for you at second base Rickey.


25. 1989 Bowman #379 Gary Carter


Looks like Ryno's in a pickle, with another Hall of Famer running him down.


24. 1994 Collector's Choice #47 Bret Barberie


That Piazza guy crouching behind the plate was apparently too good to be cropped out.


23. 1993 Select - Stars #14 Roberto Alomar


George Brett slides hard, but legally, into second.


22. 1991 Upper Deck #572 Ken Griffey Sr.


Oh, Upper Deck. Any excuse to have 'the kid' in-frame.
Frankly I'm surprised this image wasn't used for some sort of "father-son", "special", "ludicrously-overprinted-but-hyped-nonetheless" card.


21. 1993 Upper Deck #179 Kirt Manwaring


Another 'kid' blocks Manwaring's path to the plate.


20. 1993 Upper Deck #382 Fernando Ramsey


Watch out Fernando! There's a hawk behind you!


19. 1993 Upper Deck #189 Mike Bordick


While I'm trying to turn two, Dave Winfield is precisely the freight train I do not want barreling down on me...

Roberto Alomar - photo bombing before it was popular! A cool and unique list - I enjoyed looking at it!

Man, I need to make a list about photobombs: I can at least thing of a few cards where Miguel Montero is tagging someone out at home. Believe me, they are really popular in Topps!

Cool list! There has to be a ton of these throughout the years but this is a nice start.

Love the Jody Reed card, hated the Brewers' jerseys at the time, now they have grown on me.

I can't be certain that the blobs behind Schiraldi are Dawson and/or Sandberg (the infielder appears to be left-handed, so he's most likely Mark Grace)...

Interesting list! #16 certainly stood out to me b/c I've had that card in my Ryno collection for decades. I need to get a copy of #27 ('92 UD Stillwell) for my Ozzie Smith collection. I need two copies of #10 ('88 Topps RB) for my Rickey and Mattingly collections. Thanks for showing me some more cards I'd like to add to my collection (besides just those 2). I might have to weigh-in on some additions for your list in the future! I'm sure I have more of them for you to add.

I know the player in card 1. Huson is the tv man for my local and favorite team the Colorado Rockies.

 

I also have that exeact same card. But my card is an error. It has a rediscover topps stamp on it.

 

Yes it is a upper deck card with a rediscover topps stamp on it.

Would you consider George Brett appearing on football Hall of Famer Howie Long's 1991 Upper Deck #289 football card?

Robin Yount is on the back of Scott Flecther's 1991 Upper Deck card #321.

Thanks FiresNBeers - it looks like Edgar Martinez is stealing Fletcher's spotlight on the front of that card too!

A very sneaky cameo, armac.  It belongs in my list, though I'm normally looking for future HOF teammates or opposing players...

I should specify that I'm only considering baseball HOFers, on cards from any sport.  However I don't care if Deion Sanders or Dave DeBusschere appear on other players' baseball cards.

This is a great list!!  Robin Yount is also on Jeff Treadway's card.  I'm pretty sure Yount beat the throw!!
