About the Back: It's good to see such drastically different composition in the front and back photos. At least Matt Whiteside is facing in the opposite direction. So, which is his good side, do you think?
Triple Play:
1. His nickname is "Whitey", proving once again how inventive ballplayers can be when it comes to monikers.
2. Matt was a guest judge for the 1996 Miss USA Pageant.
3. Whiteside now lives in Missouri and is a pitching instructor and owner of All-Star Performance Baseball Camps and Clinics.
11-Year-Old Kevin Says: I seem to recall confusing him with Dan Smith, another Texas rookie pitcher with a dull card in this set. We'll see him on card #607.
Bill James Said: "Excellent control, best pitch is a sinking fastball, doesn't throw 90."
On This Date in 1993: August 14. The Smashing Pumpkins play their entire Siamese Dream album live in concert at the Cabaret Metro in Chicago, IL.
