While Eddie Sawyer looks happy on his Topps card, he infamously resigned after just one game in 1960, handing the reins of that unperforming team to Gene Mauch to endure a last-place finish. Sawyer performed closer to his own expectations for the expansion Royals a decade later, who capitalized on Rookie of the Year Lou Piniella's energy to play competitive ball in a crowded AL. This clean, centered card was graded PSA MINT 9 and the population report shows just one graded higher.
