Towards the end of the year, some new cards of Sandy Alomar Jr. were actually released. This was pretty good news and kind of unexpected. Of course the year also saw a couple of online-only cards released with the Topps Now card and the Topps X card from the Francisco Lindor set.
This was the first card released, an insert in the Topps Archives Snapshots set. This card celebrates Alomar's winning of the All Star MVP in 1997. This was after Alomar hit a home run off of the Giants' Shawn Estes in the seventh inning. That eventually won the game.
I had been saying for a while now that I wanted to see Topps acknowledge his All Star Game MVP in one of the various sets the brand has released. Looks like they finally did it.
