Card #195: 2002 Topps Opening Day #99

YEAR: 2002
BRAND: Topps
SET: Opening Day
NUMBER: 99
SUBSET: NA
TEAM: Chicago White Sox

I never totally understood the point of Opening Day.  It would be different if the pictures were a little bit different.  In 2002, the color was not even much removed from the Topps base set.  I guess it is there to be a cheaper set geared toward kids.  Alomar is definitely showing some age in this picture.  Sitting on a stool in the dugout, his hairline receding, he is definitely a grizzled veteran at this point.
