Redux Project: 1971 Topps Mike Schmidt

Kicking off a new "Redux Project"... this time I am taking on the career of Phillies Hall of Famer: Michael Jack Schmidt.

The first card features him as a ballplayer at Ohio University. He was a four-year letter-winner for the Bobcats from 1967-1971 and was an All-American shortstop in 1970 and 1971. Ohio appeared in the College World Series in that 1970 season. Schmidt was selected in the second round of the 1971 MLB Draft (30th overall pick) by the Phillies in 1971.
