#4-Pete Rose: 1979 Highlights




   Card #4 highlights Pete Rose's setting of the major league record for 10 seasons with 200 or more hits. 79 would be the last time he did that but he would eventually become the game's all time hits leader in 1985 when he surpassed Ty Cobb's 4189. 
In this card it looks like Rose is batting at Candlestick Park possibly the May 12 afternoon game or the 13th though he only had one at-bat as a lefty facing Giants' righty Randy Moffitt.
