Johnny Bench would be starting his first full season in 1968 and the Big Red Machine mainstay would not disappoint, capturing the NL Rookie of the Year trophy and catching an almost unbelievable 154 games, which earned this iron man backstop his first gold glove. His SGC 6.5 rookie card, quite popular, is nicely centered and has a wonderful clear image of the greatest catcher of his era (and arguably, of all time) and a battery mate who would never play for the Reds.
