I just had to pop on a box of 2012 Topps Triple Threads Baseball. After watching a couple of breaks and see some of the hot cards being pulled, I reached out to Marty's Sportscard Exchange Superstore and got me a box along with a couple of boxes of 2012 Leaf History of Baseball Cut Signature Edition and a box of 2012 Leaf Valiant Football. I busted the football box first and scored a few cool rookie autographs, all on card. Chandler Jones, Brian Quick, Kendall Wright #'d 99, and Jarius Wright #'d 99. The Leaf Baseball was next, hitting a couple of cuts that I had to Google but with interesting results. I pulled a Bill Rigney "Best Wishes" inscribed cut, and an Earl "Sparky" Adams cut signature. Rigney was an All Star in 1948 and a manager later on in his career. "Sparky" played on the winning team in the 1931 World Series with the Cardinals. Now to the big dog. I busted the Triple Threads two pack box and ripped into the first pack. Not bad, Rickey Henderson, Roberto Clemente, and Tom Seaver. Now to the hit, BOOM, James Shields "Big Game James" Triple Relic Autograph 6/9, sweet but we're not done. Next up, BOOM, a Justin Verlander Unity Relic Jersey 9/9, sweet. The last two cards are the parallels, a Cliff Lee /99, and Joe Mauer /625. Okay, on to pack 2. Ripped into that and there's Prince Fielder, Don Mattingly, and Cal Ripken Jr, now for the hit, or should I say No Hitter, King Felix Hernandez "19-5 217 2.49 IN 2009" Triple Relic 17/18, nice, but what's next? How about your 1st win, Henderson Alvarez Unity Autograph Relic 2 Color Patch 10/10. Yeah! So not a bad day at the table. Hope you enjoyed the break, check out the store for some great deals on these cards and more.
