Unless you count the foil card of Team USA player Rick Greene, the card of a supposedly 26 year old Riccardo Ingram, (I think that's Rico Carty trying to sneak in a comeback...) and the fantastic card of Kevin Ritz giving the signal to the catcher of what pitch he just threw, while the ball was one its way towards home. Of course with Ritz, you know that ball didn't stick around home plate for long....

Add Ingram, Perona, and Brock to the list of Tigers I have no recollection of. What a collection of no recollections that group is becoming too.

Ingram was a longtime Tigers farmhand who appeared in 12 games with the 1994 team...enough to get on a Topps Traded card! He also played 4 games with the '95 Twins. Tarrik Brock was drafted out of high school by the Tigers in 1991, and he stayed in their minor league system until the 1996 season. Bouncing around with a few teams, he made a brief MLB appearance, getting into 13 games with the 2000 Cubs. Joe Perona was also a '91 draft pick, but he never appeared in the majors, lasting just 5 minor league seasons, getting up to AA ball. However, he has the best card of the 1992 Bowman team set...it's like a bad senior picture. Perona is leaning against a tree in his front yard, rocking a Miami Vice style Hawaiian shirt. In fact, it may be his actual senior picture.
