Group Break #6: Did Someone Say Hit Already? Topps Reserve Delivers!

The 2002 Topps Reserve box promises three relics plus the autographed mini helmet.  With only ten packs in the box, there's a one in three chance (basically) that a random pack will have a relic in it.  Those are fun odds for a group break - and this is definitely a box that I will consider again in the future based on the number of hits in it.  As always, let me know what you guys think about the box!

2002 Topps Reserve:
Pack 1:



48.  Brad Penny - Marlins

60.  Nathan Haynes - Angels

67.  Brian Giles - Pirates

135.  Mark Mulder - Athletics

As you can see, the backs of the card are fairly nice.  Topps gives up to three years of MLB seasonal statistics, plus career totals.  In addition, there is a small write-up plus all the player "vitals".  The mug shot completes the back and is a different photo than what is on the front of the card - something that I always appreciate!
TRJ-AR.  Relic:  Alex Rodriguez - Texas Rangers

The back of the card says:  "You just received an authentic Game-Worn uniform card of Alex Rodriguez from 2002 Topps Reserve Baseball."  This is a nice little relic card - and a great pick-up for Play at the Plate who claimed the Rangers as his team.
