I was in CVS again and saw a five dollar pack of top baseball cards again, so I grabbed it. Last time I did that I ended up pulling a Paul Skenes rookie card, and this time I pulled an Elly de la Cruz rookie card

I’ve been trying so hard to get an auto of Emeka Egbuka! Got a great hit tonight! Cannot wait to get it in my possession!

Does anyone here remember CTA? About 25 years ago CTA tried to come into the grading game. I actually really like their slabs. They also came with a very detailed grade report looking at every quadrant of the front in the back of the card.

Goose walked 37 batters in 49.2 IP and gave up 9 homers in 1973. His ERA was 9.08 when he was sent to the minors in July. He was recalled in September and was a little better down the stretch, finishing at 7.43.

Two years later he lead the league in saves and made his first of 9 all-star teams.

Psyched to add these to my collection!
