"Unwanted Inserts" Group Break: 1999 Collector's Choice Pack 15

Unwanted Inserts

1999 Collector's Choice
Pack 15


21.  Mike Kinkade (Mets)
31.  Juan Gonzalez (Rangers)
34.  Tony Gwynn (Padres)
55.  Chipper Jones (Braves)

While Cal Ripken Jr. might have been the best choice for a late 90s box break, Chipper is a close second!  This is the fourth Chipper Jones (third different card) pulled thus far!
90.  Jeff Bagwell (Astros)
103.  Jose Valentin (Brewers)
104.  Mark Loretta (Brewers)
126.  Bobby Abreu (Phillies)
129.  Aramis Ramirez (Pirates)
139.  Eliis Burks (Giants)

Another great photo - check out the catcher intently watching the play at the plate - and look at all the dirt and dust being kicked up by Burks' slide.  Beautiful!
SQ12.  Randy Johnson - *StarQuest (Astros)
Y18.  Vladimir Guerrero - Yardwork (Expos)
The second insert in the pack - and the second one from a team that wasn't claimed!  See, that's why you should claim a team - you never know what you might get!  The Yardwork insert cards are seeded 1:13 packs - I think this is the second Yardwork card out of the box so it's likely there's still one more to be discovered (but not guaranteed of course). 

Other than the Guerrero, this pack was a dud - especially in terms of the group break.  Only 5 of the 12 cards were from claimed teams...which means my pile of doubles for trade continues to grow!
