Random Wax: 2020 Topps Archives

2020 Topps Archives Baseball:  Seems like a good day for some baseball as we might be crowning a new World Series Champion tonight.  This guy is a great start as he closed out a World Series championship for the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2001 and was a beast on the mound.
Bo Bichette is always a good pull these days.
Brooks Robinson won two championships as a member of the Baltimore Orioles.
Had to look this guy up but he was sent from Philly to Miami as part of the J.T. Realmuto deal.
Cody Bellinger's batting average may not be great this post season but he definitely gets key hits in big moments.  He has four homeruns and 13 runs batted so far in the playoffs.  Dude is raking it.
The backs of these are always fun to look at too.

Deion famously played in the World Series in 1992 while also playing football for the Atlanta Falcons.  Being a Braves and Falcons guy I've always been a Deion fan.  This was a great pack to me.  I really liked my pull.  A couple of PC guys, young star and some great retired greats.

  1. I remember Deion being all the rage with the Reds for a while. I recall him getting off to a really hot start with them.

    1. My pleasure. Had it sitting around and figured this was a good time to show them off.
