Pack Break: 2001 Topps Series 2
Written by Steve on November 3rd, 2011A hobby pack of 2001 Topps Series 2:
Brian Bass has played parts of three seasons with the Minnesota Twins, Baltimore Orioles, and Pittsburgh Pirates. He spent 2011 in the AAA Lehigh Valley IronPigs’ starting rotation, going 8-10 with a 3.81 ERA.
According to Baseball-Reference, Topps got Ayala’s card wrong. His first name should be spelled “Odannys”, not “Odanis”. After 4 years of not being able to advance past A+ level ball, Odannys played a couple seasons of independent baseball (where he had more success) before quitting professional baseball in 2005. (The big question here is why did Topps give a 42nd round draft pick like Ayala a Major League baseball card???)
