There are a lot of fun little connections. I think Topps puts a lot of thought into Heritage, which is why some collectors prefer it to anything else.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6893787306319909907.post-27682630016344798402012-09-13T06:11:34.412-04:002012-09-13T06:11:34.412-04:00So you're saying I did not crack the Heritage ...So you're saying I did not crack the Heritage code? <br /><br />Oh.<br /><br />Bummer.Mark Kazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06742272751796497047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6893787306319909907.post-78816598343887112702012-09-12T23:32:54.223-04:002012-09-12T23:32:54.223-04:00Yeah, i had heard that they tried to match a lot o...Yeah, i had heard that they tried to match a lot of players up like that when they could. Obviously there's some leeway since the best team (Padres) wasn't around until six years after this set (let alone the other, less awesome teams that would come after them).<br /><br />I only have one '63 Topps card, and after reading this, I found out that mine worked out the same as yours! They're both Twins pitchers. Of all the packs of Heritage that I've ripped, I never pulled "Liam Hendriks". Never even heard of him, actually. Even though I'm not collecting the set, I kinda want that card, now.<br /><br />That Escobar card was actually the one that I pulled more than any other card. At one point, I had SIX of them. Took it as a sign to add him to my fantasy baseball team, and he was a good enough for me to hold on to him for a month or so.Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439278650702057885noreply@blogger.com
