The basics: This is the first of Daryl Boston's two cards in the 1993 Upper Deck set. He signed as a free agent with the Rockies in December 1992 and he'll appear with them much later in the set.
Card thoughts: Boston is taking off out of the box at Wrigley Field. For his whole career, I rooted for Boston to play for the Red Sox but it never happened.
Backs are important in '93 UD: Boston is hitting on the road once again, but I don't know the stadium. He is displaying the "S" patch on his sleeve that the Mets wore in memory of Shea Stadium namesake William Shea.
Boston was a role player throughout much of his career but averaged the most games per season with the Mets.
More from '93: On this date in 1993, the Seinfeld episode "The Cigar Store Indian" airs for the first time. It's also the episode in which Kramer gets the idea to create a coffee table book about coffee tables.
