Pinktober Baseball Cards

Today is October 6th, and, I've always seemed late to the party when posting pink baseball cards to help bring awareness to Breast Cancer.

This week's Card on the Table is a former Tiger, and my All-Time favorite big league pitcher, Matthew Boyd. 

It's late on Monday night, a day that saw my fibromyagia beat me up for most of the day, so, this is a quick post to get Breast Cancer Awareness Month started on the blog. 

Look forward to reading all the posts this month and see all the cool pink baseball cards.

Have a great week, and, remember, we all need to help Save the Tatas!

McGonigle Monday- 8/31/2026

On Saturday afternoon at Comerica Park, the Tigers beat the Dodgers, 2-1, on a walk off single by Kevin McGonigle.

This picture of Kevin and fellow rookie Max Clark turned into...

...a Topps NOW card...

...and, the same card in a purple variation, on Topps BUNT. 

Watching these two amazing young men play baseball bodes well for the future of the Tigers.

The Tigers play in Minnesota starting tonight, and, are hoping the injured Riley Greene will return to the team soon. 

Have a great week, and, well, you know what...PLAY BALL! 🐅⚾️
