Has Anyone Seen the Part of Me That Cares?
Tuesday, July 8, 2008by Geoff Young
In Ashland, just around the corner from the Standing Stone Brewery (excellent Oatmeal Stout), there's a cool little comic book store we always make sure to visit. This time, on impulse, I bought every baseball card they had in stock -- 41 packs of maybe 30-40 cards each, separated by team -- for $19. There's everyone in here from Hall-of-Famers Paul Molitor and Eddie Murray to the all-but-forgotten Bill Stein. Heck, I've got Omar Vizquel as a Mariner.
Anyway, one of the packs contains nothing but Padres:
Broderick Perkins
Mike Maddux (x2)
Frank Seminara
Bip Roberts
Jeremy Hernandez (x2)
"Eddie" Whitson
"Benny" Santiago
Tim Teufel (x5)
Andy Benes (x3)
Rich Rodriguez (x3)
Randy Myers (the moderately effective version, not the completely sucky and expensive one; x3)
Dan Walters ...
