2005 Upper Deck 1st Pitch


Just how many packs of cards has Junior been on, does anyone know? Contrary to what some folks THINK that I wrote, Junior will be in the HOF one day (I just don't think he's a first-time entree) and the Hall should do an introspective of the packs on which Griffey has appeared...



Here we have AJ Pierzynski (Giants), who is either trying to catch a pop fly, pretending to be catching a pop fly, or is looking directly into the sun so that it will force him to sneeze... Of course, he could just be asking the cameraman if his nose is clean...



Tim Hudson (A's) is caught during an actual game. There's a runner on first, possibly a Yankee?



Ryan Klesko (Padres) appears to be fielding a.. baseball bat!? "Hey, Klesko! See if you can catch THIS!" This looks like a VERY bizarre photoshop disaster...



Raul Ibanez (Mariners) is giving the ol' "knockin fists" to a teammate that does not seem to be sharing quite the enthusiasm as Raul. Sidebar: Just how many Mariners can I pull from packs, anyway?? I seem to pull a LOT...



Jorge Sequea (Blue Jays) throws a ball right at the camerman. This is a "Star Rookie" card that ends with "Sequea should make his major league debut in 2005." Unfortunately, before that could happen, he was killed in a tragic car accident...

Definitely a Yankee, in fact, I believe it is Jorge Posada.

He holds his arms in a particular way when he runs.

Did the Star Rookie really die? or are you just messing with us?
