"3 Men Down" Group Break: 1998 Collector's Choice Pack 23

Three Men Down

This pack features the coolest photo of three guys on the ground that I've seen on a baseball card.  Is he safe or is he out?  The hand (presumably of the umpire) seems to suggest safe!

1998 Collector's Choice
Pack 23

10.  Ken Griffey Jr. (Mariners)

Clean and classy, just like Mr. Griffey Jr. himself!
20.  Checklist 54 - 106 (Red Sox & Blue Jays)
40.  Cal Ripken Jr. (Orioles)
53.  Kevin Orie (Cubs)
114.  Tom Fordham (White Sox)
151.  Scott Karl (Brewers)
208.  Lou Collier (Pirates)

Here's the photo that inspired the pack title.  I love this card - if there was a "best card of 1998 poll" out there, this one would get my vote I believe!
212.  Esteban Loaiza (Pirates)
224.  Joey Hamilton (Padres)
237.  Jamie Moyer (Mariners)
255.  Ken Griffey JR & Andres Galarraga - Top of the Charts - RBIs (Mariners & Rockies)

264.  Robert Person (Blue Jays)
SQ13.  Todd Helton - StarQuest Special Delivery (Rockies)

  1. Wow, that card is one of the best I've ever seen! I love when random dudes appear on epic-ly great cards!

  2. Also, just found this on his baseball reference page:

    March 24, 2002: Traded by the New York Mets to the Montreal Expos for Jason Bay and Jimmy Serrano.

    Yes that Jason Bay. Granted, way before Bay was known at all, but still crazy.
