18 Innings.

Did you stay up and watch all 18 innings of Game 3 of the World Series last night? 

Freddie Freeman continues to shine in baseball's biggest stage. 

How will this affect the Blue Jays tonight? 

How will it affect the Dodgers?

Looking forward to the game as well as participating in the Game 4 "Watch Party" on the Topps BUNT App. 

Enjoy the game! 🇨🇦🇺🇸⚾️

Happy Baseball Birthday! Jared Kelly

Just wanted to post a Happy Baseball Birthday! salute to Jared Kelley, a magnificent artist who draws cards for the Topps Living Set each week. 

Jared's card this week is Texas Rangers rookie pitcher Kumal Rocker.

My favorite card of Jared's isn't a Tigers player, as you probably think. 

Topps Living Set Card #770, Fred Lynn. 

Jared sent me a signed card of Fred, my All-Time favorite BoSox player.

Jared, I hope you had a great Birthday, my friend, and, well, I'm still hoping you'll be the one to draw the card of Matthew Boyd as a Chicago Cub.
