2008 Topps Retail Relics Lance Berkman

In honor of Berkman hitting his first homerun with the Yankees tonight.  I think he'll be on another team next year.  I just get the impression he wants to play first base, just not DH all the time.  2008 Topps Retail Relics #LB Lance Berkman jersey card with pinstripe and still in the original wrapper.

1970 Topps #580 Pete Rose

Not really too much to say about this card.  Not a bad looking card for how old it is.  Got this one in a trade on Sports Card Forum website.  Great place to trade and get information about the hobby.  Hopefully one day Rose will be in the Baseball Hall of Fame.  1970 Topps #580 Pete Rose.

2009 Topps Sterling Career Chronicles Relics Triple Dale Murphy

It's been a while since I got a card that I was super excited about.  Dale Murphy (or The Murph) of the Atlanta Braves was the first player I started collecting back in the 80's when I was a kid.  I hope one day he will make the Baseball Hall of Fame but right now I'm just not sure he will get the votes.  2009 Topps Sterling Career Chronicles Relics Triple #103 Dale Murphy bat card serial numbered to 10.

Cubs' Tyler Colvin hospitalized after hit by splintered bat

I hate the Cubs but I wouldn't wish this to happen. Plus I actually like this kid. Have a couple of his rookie cards.

Roy Oswalt 2005 Zenith Z-Bats #35

I still miss him.  What a great guy and player.  Roy Oswalt 2005 Zenith Z-Bats #35 game used bat.  Can't believe how cheap this card still is.  Sometimes I wonder why they call them game used bats when they were used by the pitcher.  We know they didn't actally use it to hit a ball.

1999 Bowman's Best Franchise Best Mach Derek Jeter

Can't remember how I got this since it was a while ago but it was probably in a trade.  Nothing great but it's still a nice card for my collection.  I've got a decent Jeter collection so there will be more to come.  1999 Bowman's Best Franchise Best Mach I #FB6 Derek Jeter.

My Day at the Astros game: 9-15-2010

We lost it in the 10th but I still had fun.  4 free tickets on the field level and since it was 1 o'clock start time I got to take a half day off work.

2003 Topps Traded Future Phenoms Relics Carl Crawford

Got this in a trade a while back on Beckett.com.  Carl is a speedster on the base path.  He's from my hometown of Houston so that makes me like him even more.  2003 Topps Traded Future Phenoms Relics #CDC Carl Crawford bat card.

2001 SP Game Used Edition Authentic Fabric Tom Glavine

Who doesn't like this guy.  What a role model for the youngsters too.  I loved watching Tom pitch for many years.  He was a finesse pitcher so he didn't really have a chance to blowout his elbow his first year.  Very durable pitcher who was rarely on the disabled list.  If you have anything of Glavine you want to trade away, please let me know.  2001 SP Game Used Edition Authentic Fabric #TOG Tom Glavine.
