Angels in the Background

by collectaBK7 - 18 cards (Last updated on Oct 15, 2023)

Cards of players from teams that are not the Angels that visibly feature an Angels player on it. Just a for fun thing that I'm putting together from cards I already had.

1992 Upper Deck #152 Mike Scioscia Front

1. 1992 Upper Deck #152 Mike Scioscia

Luis Sojo

1992 Upper Deck #156 Sandy Alomar Jr. Front

2. 1992 Upper Deck #156 Sandy Alomar Jr.

Unknown who this player is as the full, original image cannot be found.

Looking at every game Alomar played for the Indians against the Angels in 1990 and 1991 and eliminating players who were obviously not in the background left the following list of potential candidates:

Donnie Hill
Lance Parrish
Lee Stevens
Brian Downing
Dante Bichette
Dick Schofield
Jack Howell
Ron Tingley
Wally Joyner
Rick Schu
Gary Disarcina
John Orton
Gary Gaetti
Bobby Rose
Dave Gallagher

Any further help or information would be greatly appreciated!

Got one for you 😀

not sure if you're taking suggestions from others but if you are I think Jared Walsh is the guy in the background here :)

I count 36 Angels who had at least one plate appearance in 1972 .... but which one is here?
