cards featuring games i attended in person mini-collection

i've been fortunate to have been to a number of baseball games in a number of cities. from my earliest collecting days, i've wondered about those games i attended and whether or not any of them would be featured on baseball cards. one game in the late 1970's, i saw reggie smith stretching and thought that it would make a great baseball card image. alas, that card was never made, but thanks to having witnessed some specific events in person, there have been cards made featuring games i've attended in person.

i'll post a list of known cards from these games, with ones that i have in strikethrough text. i will also link to the post i wrote about that game over at cards as i see them.
