Bonus!  Card #10 of 10.  This particular card is from the Twins set.  Team was only 1 back at this early date.  This is the game Nick Blackburn nearly had dental work done; the game log is a little weak.  It happens.

    From Socaltwinsfan:
    Is Matt Guerrier hurt? He pitched to all of one batter last night, but it's Crain who has to go two innings today?

    Gardy must have seen this quote and tried to make up for it.

    I've put out some feelers on the intartubes to trade some of the non-Twins games I have for more Twins games; we'll see what happens. And I realized that all Twins games at Yankee stadium will be featured in the insert set, too, which complicates things further. What a hellacious set to try put together!

    fwi, it's pretty much unanimous among all collectors that this COULD have been a sweet set if UD hadn't been lazy and just arbitrarily pasted a player's photo to the front of the cards regardless if the player was in the game or not.
