Topps Now Card #722: When Shohei reached 50/50 for the season I was excited as anyone. So much so I purchased five of the Topps Now cards commemorating the milestone. Probably overly excited, but man is this guy special. The bundle of five cards is my first foray into Topps Now cards. The design is nice and I like the photo, especially seeing the coach in the background all excited.
The backs are standard summaries of the milestone but it's still exciting. Not only does he get to 50/50 but he does it with three home runs and 10 RBIs in the game. Crazy. When you order Topps Now cards you may receive parallel, numbered parallels or even autos. This is my first look at these so I can't say that goes for every Topps Now card. Here's hoping Los Angeles and Cleveland make it to the World Series. In almost no world can I root for one of the New York teams.
