Oh sure, it might be (sort of) early Sunday morning - but that's not going to stop me from busting some more packs of cards for the group break. I can start to see the end of the busting tunnel now though - many of the remaining boxes are showing white in the bottom (at least for a stack or two worth of packs)!
2004 Upper Deck Play Ball:
Pack 10:
7. Jason Giambi - Yankees
100. Jerry Hairston Jr. - Orioles
116. Brandon Phillips - Indians
130. Carlos Lee - White Sox
143. Rookie Portfolio: Jamie Brown - Red Sox #0575/2004
I really wanted to give the pack win to the Indians for the nice Brandon Phillips card - but I can't ignore the serially numbered Red Sox card. Congrats Boston on your fourth pack win of the break! By the way, for those interested the Rookie Portfolio cards are seeded 1:16 packs so we beat the odds slightly since this is our second such card from the box!
Pack 11:
17. Alfonso Soriano - Rangers
48. Richie Sexson - Diamondbacks
67. Miguel Tejada - Orioles
78. Carlos Beltran - Royals
82. Troy Glaus - Angels
AT-HM. Artist's Touch: Hideki Matsui - Yankees #081/250
Woah, that's a nice looking relic now isn't it (and numbered out of 250 with a nice pinstripe no less). I like the fact that the swatch cut-out is in the shape of an artist's palette too - it complements the set theme well. Congrats to New York on this pack win.
Pack 12:
31. Vernon Wells - Blue Jays
64. Jose Contreras - Yankees
73. Ivan Rodriguez - Tigers
114. Bobby Abreu - Phillies
122. Torii Hunter - Twins
After the excitement of the previous pack, this one sure was a let-down. In fact, it wasn't even easy to pick a decent card out of the pack, let alone a card worthy of bringing home the prestigious pack win. That said, I have to pick a team - so Philly, you got it. Whoopee.
