2009 Sweet Spot Bat Barrel Auto #08/25

I've had some exciting moments in the 35 years I've been collecting. I have to say that seeing this card when it came out of the package ranks pretty high on the list. My first ever bat barrel auto. A lot of times a card looks really sick online or in photos then in person it's a bit of a letdown. It rarely happens the other way. This was one of those cards that just blew me away. A week or so later it's just as sick. The shadow box presentation is part of it. Makes the card seem really thick. The crisp-ness of the blue sharpie against the lacquered wood. The curve of the bat piece. The low print run. All I can say is I'm in love with this card. Sa-weet!
