1977 Topps Baseball #79 - Don Money

• At the beginning of the 1977 season it was thought that Don Money would be the odd man out. The Brewers had signed Sal Bando to play third base and the team was trying to trade Money for a power-hitting outfielder, a second baseman, or some relief pitching. After the Brewers were unable to deal Money, he ended up being the team's starting second baseman. He also played 23 games in LF and 15 games at 3B.
