i saw him standing there

there are some really nice looking cards in this year's stadium club release, but i think this card might be my favorite
the photo comes from game 5 of the 2017 nlds between the cubs and nationals, and willson contreras is tagging out trea turner in the first inning to preserve what was then a 1-0 cubs lead.  it's a decent play-at-the-plate card, but what i really like is seeing nationals' first base coach davey lopes in the background! a great get for my lopes collection!

  1. Super jealous of your baseball knowledge. I thought the guy in the background was the batboy :)
