The basics: Royce Clayton makes his first and only appearance in the 1993 Upper Deck set. He was just starting his career as a full-time shortstop.
Card thoughts: Air Clayton! That is a cool shot that sums up Clayton's reputation as a defensive wizard at short.
Backs are important in '93 UD: Clayton is displaying a throwback uniform in the back photo. It looks like a New York Giant uni.
Clayton's stats aren't much to look at right here, but starting in 1993, he would spend the next 14 years or so as a starting shortstop.
I had an encounter with Clayton that I've mentioned before on the other blog.
More from '93: Have been trying to avoid this because I like to consider this a light-and-breezy blog, but it's a significant moment in 1993 and in history. The World Trade Center bombing took place on this date in '93.
