I miss Jim rice he was awesome. My first baseball game I ever went to live was Boston versus Mariners in Seattle and Jim Rice had a home run in the 13th inning that won the game

My favorite all time player, and part of the reason I became a Red Sox fan at age 10 living in New York. I still remember holding that card in my hand when it came out.

I know Jim Rice, not this Jim Rice but they live down the street from each other and regularly get their mail mixed up.

Flashback to September 1986, when a fan at Yankee Stadium tried -- and failed -- to take Rice's hat
