Awesome Piazza Pull out of Series 2 Blaster
Happy Holidays, Friends.
So while I was out Christmas shopping I picked up a blaster of 2019 Series 2 Topps to take one last shot at a Vladdy Jr. SP.
No dice, but I got a very nice consolation prize ...
A Mike Piazza gold manufactured relic/150!
But here's the best part ... upon further inspection, it was numbered 031/150 on the back, and as we all know, #31 is his jersey number!
Not for trade, but Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Another nice retail pull by RJ! Congrats...even though Piazza will always be Dodger Blue for me.

I've always had a connection to Piazza, because his rookie season in 1993 was my freshman year at USC ... like we were the "new kids in town" LOL
I graduated in May of 1997, and Piazza got traded to Florida on my birthday like a week later, so it was totally like our "careers" in LA lasted the exact same amount of time.
What I like about this card is that not only is his jersey number confirmed, well, on his jersey, but also on his wristband.
