Random Wax: 2019 Topps Big League Baseball w/Artist's Rendition

This Wilson Contreras card from a random 2019 Topps Big League Baseball pack really stood out to me so he'll lead off tonight.  This year's Big League Baseball offering is a favorite of mine so when I saw Target restocked I didn't hesitate.  I love the design with the flag and wood grain.
That Pirates' uni really is nice and even better on a gold parallel.
 Some decent star power in this pack though some of them were on inserts and were duplicates of cards I've pulled before so I didn't show them off.
This is the third Artist's Rendition I've pulled.  They are #/50.  It will be interesting to see if Robbie Ray is still a Diamondback come the end of the trade deadline.
Freddie Freeman and the great Nick Markakis on the same card?  Win!  Truthfully though it was hard to see Markakis go down with a broken wrist.  Dude has been so consistent for the Braves.  Another fun pack.  Now that I know where some are in stock I may be picking up more.
