I'm about ready to hit cruise control and coast through the final few packs. I'm pretty sure I mixed up my analogies there, probably because tomorrow starts the work week and as such I'll be back to having to drive 5.5 hours on Mondays and Wednesdays.
Pack 17:
29. Fernando Tatis
38. Greg Maddux
84. Preston Wilson
102. Tim Salmon
And a Class 2 parallel of:
44. Jason Kendall
It's nice to get a little Pirates love in a box. Even though I'm a Reds fan, I live in Pennsylvania so I have a bit of a soft spot in my heart for the Pirates. I don't actively collect Pittsburgh cards but if I'm never able to trade this one away that's ok with me.
Pack 18:
6. Andruw Jones
44. Jason Kendall
65. Kevin Brown
85. Rafael Fucal
98. Scott Rolen
Nothing overly exciting in the pack but I did land the Class 1 card of Jason Kendall. The Class 1 card has him featured in his catching gear while the Class 2 card has him batting. I like that the parallels have different photos - it actually makes the different classes feel exciting.
As a pair of packs, the good news was that I needed each of the cards that I ended up getting. My set is getting closer and closer to completion, I'm beginning to think it's possible to complete the set (minus the short printed rookies) with a single box...or at least come really close to completing the set.
