Nice one! I'm a sucker for the sapphire parallels. I got a 2013 gold batting to go with the pitching. Here's hoping a mail day snaps him out of his Shobomb slump.

Out of 200...there's an unnumbered silver foil (that I personally think are criminally undervalued) and a holo foil /50 that costs one healthy human kidney.

Waited almost a month and a half for this to finally get here.

Two failed purchases off the Shohei FB group, thankfully PP resolved both quickly. Third time was a charge and after being stuck in NJ pending authentication it’s finally here. I absolutely love this card.

What is this card called. I know it’s a SSP but does in have a name. Like fireworks or something

It’s the 2024 Topps chrome SSP. Don’t think it has an official name though Beckett calls it dugout pyro in the variation guide.

I wonder if the other 2013 BBM's will catch popularity. They seem so cheap for what they are. For transparency - I own 3 different BBM cards of his from 2013.

He's starting to hit it up the middle again even if they result in outs. It's coming, guys.
