Who: Catcher Joe Oliver
Team: Cincinnati Reds
Card: 1993 Pinnacle
Acquired: TTM 2/2 1/10/2009 (52 days)
Comments: Perfect storm on this card. First off, great photography. Joe is pouncing out of his crouch for a passed ball. The intensity of the moment is framed up perfectly in the photo. Second - I'm not in love with the card design, but it's simple and really lets the photo do the talking. Black always frames up photos nicely. Third - dude, it's Joe friggin' Oliver of the 1990 World Series champion Cincinnati Reds and he signed my card.
This card rocks.
