First pack wasn't too bad with a triple game-used jersey card of Ryan Braun, Prince Fielder and Bill Hall.
It started going way down hill from there.
Pack 2: Carlos Lee GU jersey. Yes, that's a double for me. I got this card in a group break with VOTC.
Pack 3: Carl Yastremski (however, it's spelled) GU jersey. Wait, yes, that's a double too.
Pack 4: Rick Porcello GU jersey. While I liked the hit, the card was actually damaged. There were two dings in it and white showing because it was chipped. So, I'm annoyed I got a damaged card.
Pack 5: Donald Veal auto /650. Who?
At this point, I'm shaking my head at buying a hobby box of this. I couldn't believe I spent $81 (at Dave and Adam's) on this hobby box. I'm yelling at myself in my head and begrudgingly opened the final pack.
I like to tease myself when I know there is a hit. So, I slowly move the base cards out of the way to see if I can get a peek at who it is.
Suddenly, I see a Yankee helmet on the picture.
I freeze and get nervous. Marie is yelling at me to look at the card.
Well, here it is:
I didn't have much to say because I'm floored I pulled this card. Marie didn't believe me because I was just so surprised and couldn't say anything.
Funny thing about this card is that this is the card she was trying to get me for my birthday because she likes the black bat better. But, ended up with the brown bat.
Good thing, because I would have ended up with three doubles of game-used cards.
