2008 Topps Series 1:

  1. #105 Roger Clemens
  2. #207 Jeff Kent
  3. #65 Billy Wagner
  4. #69 Bobby Cox (Manager)
  5. #203 Jason Tyner
  6. #133 Mike Bacsik
  7. Gold Border #184 Tadahito Iguchi (Serial#1792/2008)
  8. #75 Felix Hernandez
  9. #240 Jim Thome
  10. #292 Mark Loretta

After 4 years of playing in the American Major Leagues, Tadahito is back in Japan and still playing.
