Serial Saturday #4: A 3 pack of pages

Want to get the pages moving across the blog, so I'm going to show off 3 pages today.  There's still well over 100 more to show, meaning I'm going to have to pick up the pace unless I want to do this for the next year and a half (which I don't).

Enjoy the next 3 pages...

The Jays dominate the page with 3 of the 9 cards.  That doesn't happen very often.  I was responsible for picking up 5 of the 9 cards on the page, while the only repeat friend of the blog was Dennis from the Too Many Verlanders blog, who provided the Hundley and Wells cards.

Amazingly, the Justin Verlander card did not come from the Too Many Verlanders blog (I picked it up on my own).  5 of the 9 cards did come from trade partners, while one was from the 2012 NSCC and another was purchased off of ebay.

Two teams join the double digit club, as Oakland and San Diego both now have 10 cards displayed.  Max (Starting Nine blog) and Brian (Play at the Plate blog) dominate the page, as they contributed 3 and 2 cards respectively.  

Almost 200 cards down after this week's post, just 1300 more to go. 

Thanks for reading, Robert
