- #UH263 Eric Patterson
- Gold Foil #UH238 Dan Uggla (All-Star)
“Uggla’s father, John, grew up as a Yankees fan in Schenectady, N.Y., so it was a special thrill for Dan to make his All-Star Game debut at Yankee Stadium in 2008 after hitting 23 home runs for the Marlins before the break. Also selected to the National League team as a rookie in ’06, Dan did not see action in that year’s game in Pittsburgh.”
Dan Uggla is a very patient hitter, drawing on average at least 4 pitches per at-bat. He is currently 12th in the National League for total pitches thrown to him (Derrek Lee currently leads the league in that department).
