He's gonna get 1 more AB!

Pages heard you.

Cycle to cap the season?
Another homer to tie Schwarber for the NL lead?

Yes to one or the other, please.

I guess I beat the odds with Topps Chrome, one base & 1 purple Ohtani, two base Bader's.

Odd stat, but Ohtani has the only 55 HR season in baseball history.

Topps Now?

Chrome rookie cup SP, cool card with Ichiro. Another one down.

Love that card. Saw this pic of Ohtani greeting Ichiro earlier. While I’m no expert on the variety of meanings of Japanese bows—degree of bow, situation, etc.—this is clearly a show of much do respect.

Topps, please, put this in Stadium Club.

ballislife · 09-28-2025, 06:18 PM

Prices are low considering he hasn't even had the classic 10+K, 1+ HR game in the postseason yet.

BUY

BoSoxFan1999 · 09-28-2025, 07:22 PM

Ohtani only hit 55 this season so it's easier to break the franchise single season record again next year. Lol

ThoseBackPages · 09-28-2025, 07:23 PM

BUY!!!!!!!

Gold CRA-SO PSA 9 sold at BIN 64k

TortugaSky · 09-29-2025, 03:26 AM

I've been watching this Gold for a while. It has a very weak auto.

Tim · 09-29-2025, 06:13 AM

Not pitching in either of the first 2 games because they say they want him to focus on hitting lol. Can you imagine if the Dodgers get sent packing by the Reds after 2 games and the entire season of his prepping to pitch in the playoffs doesn't even happen? Wow on this weird decision.

Imagine:
Not pitching Sho & not having having a first ballot hall of famer on the wild card roster.

I love Sho so much, but as an avid Dodger hater I hope it backfires in their face.

I am also thrilled to have just added a nice Ohtani Refractor to my collection.

Brutal autograph on that one.

Cardsandcoffee · 09-29-2025, 10:01 AM

I’m in the market for a CRA-SO/pitching and I’ve noticed majority of the autos aren’t great. A lot actually are really faded

hammertime · 09-29-2025, 10:24 AM

Shohei finishes the season as #297 on the all-time bWAR list.

i would imagine The Mayor owns seven of them and other long time collectors have locked away the solid auto copies

Just seven?? Haha, it's close. Nice work

And yes, the solid autos are getting locked away and it's the same ones floating on the block lately. This is why I'd personally pay a premium on a dark bold auto without feeling bad. The eye appeal and satisfaction is night and day.

NYBBFAN · 09-29-2025, 11:56 AM

Pretty good feat for Ohtani to raise his career numbers for OBP, SLG, OPS and OPS+ this season. Oh yeah, he also raised his SO/9 and lowered his career ERA and WHIP. All in a season's work. (I know they're nerd numbers Eric, but I will enjoy them)

NCWolf · 09-29-2025, 12:06 PM

Need some help yal... Managed to get an Ohtani Bowman Chrome carrying bag PSA 10 in a trade plus cash deal here couple years ago. Recent sales have it at 6k and 6.3k... Seems like it can't go up much further right? Buy, sell, or hold??
