Terry Forster was one mentioned in a David Letterman monologue as a "big fat tub of goo". Later that year, Forster was invited to be on the Late Night show, and was a good-natured guest whose clip can be found on YouTube.
A good hitting pitcher, Forster hit .397 in his major league career (31 for 78), which is noted for being the highest all-time career average for any player with a minimum of 50 at bats.

Dude had a legit career. Wonder what Dave would say these days, because there are definitely fatter guys in the MLB now than TF was back then.

I remember watching that Letterman appearance. Terry dropped that he was considering suing him and Dave was a little taken aback.

I believe the Steve Busby card is an uncorrected error, and the photo is actually Fran Healy.
I like the wild multi-colored borders on this set. My favorite combination is the yellow/red border.

True. I always thought the Orioles' brown/orange was about the most 70s thing in the world too.
