1994 Ted Williams: What can't you say about Ty Cobb? 4,189 hits and a career .366 batting average which is tops all time.
I'd like to see team logos here but I my only complain is being able to read the players names. Even in hand it's rough. Otherwise, it's just fun seeing so many players you may not see on new cardboard today.
They did show off some youngsters including Billy Wagner who was recently announced as part of the 2025 MLB Hall of Fame class.
Cliff Floyd and Tim Salmon each had their own inserts sets. Salmon is a player I collect so this was a win for me. I like the variety of photos that included some from the minor leagues.
The backs are good. Seeing some of the player's top years in stats is fun and the write-up works.
Going North shows off players when they were ready to go to the majors. I like the inclusion of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League players. Bob Horner is my favorite all-time favorite player so his inclusion on the Swingin' for the Fences inserts is great.
We also get a great look at players from the Negro Leagues.
These are fun cards and there are so many greats from the game. I got these for less than $1 per pack last year so these were a big win.
