How Many Hits Of Your Favorite Player Have You Pulled?

Just one for me in the Matt Kemp department. Way back in 2010 I pulled this beaut from my first box of Allen & Ginter.


It's still one of my favorite cards. So, I ask you, how many hits of your favorite player have you personally pulled?

  1. 1 Carlos Delgado (UDX Jersey, so hardly a "hit.")

    1 Ken Griffey Jr (2007 Ultra Swing Kings jersey, inspiration for the blog name "Plain Gray Swatch.")

    1 Drew Hutchison (2012 Pro Debut Autograph, three days after buying one on ebay.)

  2. I pulled just one myself. A Sidney Crosby prime jersey /25 from 2011-12 Panini Limited.

    If group breaks count, then I also pulled a Crosby auto /5 from a 2011-12 Panini Prime case break.

  3. I pulled a George Brett autograph redemption out of, I think, Topps Finest. The problem was it expired about 3 years before I bought the box!

  4. Only one hit and it wasn't too long ago:

  5. Well, I've never pulled David Wright or Scott Sizemore, but I have pulled some of my other guys. I've pulled Justin Upton, BJ Upton, and Justin Verlander relics before. I pulled a Verlander Sweet Spot auto a few years ago, but it was technically before I collected him.

  6. Of Wright, I've gotten pretty lucky and pulled 3 jersey cards!

    Piazza, I've never pulled any jerseys of his. Even a tougher insert of #'d parallel I don't think I've ever pulled of him.

  7. Nevah.

    That's why I get excited when I pull a "hit" of anything.

  9. Thanks for the responses guys!

    I should also note I've never pulled a hit of Kershaw, Russ Martin, or Ryan Getzlaf.

  10. My favorite player is Gary Carter. While I have pulled a few things of his, my favorite pull was from the 2001 UD Legends of NY set. I nabbed an autographed bat card.

  12. One of my favorite basketball player (Kareem) - an auto from 2001 Fleer GOTG. None of my favorite baseball player (Garvey) or football player (Bo).
