Weird Card Wednesday: Randal Poffo

savage

This card, which is actually generated by Scott Fennessy on Steve’s APBA Card Computer is “Weird” not because of what is on the card but because who the man is.  Randal Poffo, who never made it to the big leagues, is otherwise known as pro wrestler Randy “Macho Man” Savage. 

Poffo aka Savage who got as far as A-ball, actually has an entry on Baseball-Reference.com.

thanks for the laugh, Scott!

I am an IT consultant by day and an APBA media mogul by night. My passions are baseball (specifically Illini baseball), photography and of course, APBA. I have been fortunate to be part of the basic game Illowa APBA League since 1980 as well as a frequent participant of the Chicagoland APBA Tournament. I am slogging through a 1966 NL replay and hope to finish before I die.

    And it illustrates a bug in the card computer! No RP. Probably because the first character of the fielding line is “(“. I’ll get that fixed in the next release. How many DPs did he hit into, anyway? :-)

    Hi Steve,

    According to BR’s website zero. Would you consider a side by side comparison feature for players from the same season? It would help for trade reviews.
