Rafael was a good utility player that played on many a great Braves teams. Only had two career homeruns in 17 major league seasons, but got the all important ring in 1995, when the Braves defeated the Indians. I can't say anything more than how nice he was after I handed him a stack of 10 cards to sign. Class act all the way, great guy. Very glad to see him back in the Major Leagues as a coach for the Detroit Tigers.
