I have a saved search for the 2021 Transcendent Nelson Mandela cut auto. That's obviously a 1/1 and it gets posted by these hacked accounts every time, it seems - so if I see a listing for it pop up, it puts me on notice immediately that anything ELSE exciting that I see show up around the same time is almost certainly going to be fake as well, so I don't get my hopes up. It also gives me an easy way to see which account has been hacked, so I can double check.

2-4 with a two-bagger for our boy tonight. Creeping north to .260 and .817 OPS.

But boy is this lineup underperforming right now. I hope they at least keep a couple guys healthy to provide some type of protection.

He's hitting the ball well...I'm curious if he's lost a bit of speed on the basepaths because he's been caught stealing a lot this year (I guess he was last year too, and last night was a perfect throw by Smith).

Just watched this fascinating documentary on Ohtani.

Sho breaking up the no hitter with his first triple of the year. I feel bad for Anderson, but better for our guy.

hammertime · 06-16-2022, 12:43 AM

I can't believe that was his first triple of the year! 10 game hitting streak...let's hope for a solid team win tomorrow night.

Woke up to this alert on the MLB app....I can't stand the Dodgers, but I love the Angels and Sho!

On the bump and batting 3rd in Seattle! The top half of this lineup is so good, hopefully they start turning things around tonight.

Oh and here's a recent Ohtani pickup:

This umpire is straight garbage

Yeah that called ball to Trammell was absolutely ridiculous, although he did get the makeup call a couple pitches later.

Tons of wasted pitches for no good reason. It's a shame.

A little run support from Trout, and an 11 game hitting streak for Shotime!

Absolutely dealing tonight. Time to hold our collective breath for the last 3 innings.

2019 Chrome 1984 Gold Refractor /50

Nothing crazy, but this card holds some sentimental value for me. It was the first card I got excited about pulling when I got back into the hobby (was out for 15 years or so) I want to get it graded just for PC purposes, probably won’t ever move it. And I just love the look with the gold.

Thanks! Paid less than a PSA 8 copy too.

Hammertime, I like the Shohei/Ichiro photo. I need to pick up the 2019 SP refractor of those two.
