Pack 17 (A-Fraud)

60 - Mariano Rivera

128 - Johnny Cueto
230 - Justin Upton
5 - John Lackey


TR13 - Brian Giles (I did have this one already, but it wasn't "case fresh" so the one you see above replaced it in the binder)
208 - James McDonald (RC)
11 - Fernando Tatis


189 - Jay Payton (Is that ivy? Must be an interleague game. Anyway, the green makes a nice background with the orange and black)


249 - Jack Hannahan

Pack 18 (G.H. Ruth)
116 - Omar Infante
171 - Jeff Bailey
286 - Odalis Perez
25 - Jon Lester


85 - Justin Verlander (yet another back shot - VERLANDER 35)
184 - Bobby Parnell (RC)


99 - Juan Castro (More fundamentally sound defense from the 2008 Orioles)
279 - Ryan Church
215 - Ian Kinsler

Is it halfway through the box already? Wow, how it flies. I'd be more sad if I didn't have half the box and an entire jumbo box of U&H still to open.

Pack 19 (R. Howard)


26 - Jason Giambi (complete with porn mustache)
110 - Hideki Matsui (how many Yankees are in this set?)
38 - Eric Wedge
227 - Freddy Sandoval (RC)


TR20 - George Sisler (loves me some Sisler because of the Ichiro parallels, plus he's an honorary Oriole, as are all St. Louis Browns)
51 - Will Venable (RC)
287 - Greg Maddux
325 - Dustin McGowan
322 - John Buck

Pack 20 (T. Williams)


82 - Miguel Cairo
240 - Ryan Braun
250 - Josh Hamilton
238 - Jorge Cantu


170a - CC Sabathia as a Yankee (SP) (see what you've made me do, Topps? You've made me put Yankee cards into toploaders! Damn artificial scarcity!)
321 - Checklist (Kazmir & Price)
327 - Phil Coke (RC) (FFS - how many more Yankees?)
283 - John Baker
320 - Miguel Cabrera

Even my short prints have Yankees on them!
