256 - Vic Davalillo - St. Louis Cardinals |

According to Baseball Reference, his first official at bat for the Cardinals resulted in a 3-run homerun, not a grand slam. |

291 - Leo Durocher MGR - Chicago Cubs |
|
300 - Tom Seaver - New York Mets |

I have an interesting version of this Seaver card. It has Dave Giusti (#372) on the back (error card). I bought it new in 1970. There were 2 other cards in the pack similarly miscut. Only one in the world. |
