2020 Prizm Baseball: Happy 4th of July! And the 4th just screams baseball even if they aren't on the field. I'm not a shiny card guy and the only baseball Prizm I've opened in the past was part of a mystery mail day and a repack. This Max Muncy Blue Wave parallel, #/60, is a great place to start. After being released by the Oakland A's he's hit 35 home runs in each of the past two seasons. Crazy. And no I don't see any blue in the card in hand either.
The design doesn't wow me. The lack of team emblems is always a letdown. The backs are better though I have to get the reading glasses out to even think about reading it. This is listed as a multi-pack and that is because you have a regular pack and a pack with the Red, White and Blue parallels.
A couple of inserts here featuring pitchers. The first with one of the best in the game while the second showcases a prospect.
The Red, White & Blue parallels are my favorites. I like the color it brings to the card. Only bummer was almost all the Red, White & Blue parallels were duplicates of cards I'd already received in the pack. I won't pick more of these up but I know folks are big fans of Prizm, and it is one of the few new products on the shelves, so these won't be available for long.
