Pack Break: 2010 Topps Series 1

Sunday, March 28th, 2010

2010 Topps Series 1:

#210 Josh Beckett
#289 Lyle Overbay
#127 Hank Blalock
#54 John Lackey
#27 Lance Berkman/Mike Hampton (Checklist)
The Cards Your Mom Threw Out #CMT-22 Johnny Bench
Turkey Red #TR45 Ryne Sandberg
Topps Town #TTT2 David Wright
#253 Bengie Molina
#291 Austin Kearns
