I'm a #baseball fan. I love looking at #baseballcards. Took a few years off from collecting but starting to get back into it a little. Who do I need to follow on here?

Not looking for card sellers. Mainly just baseball pictures and conversation. Bonus for #Reds and #1980s content.

You do have one of the greatest logos. BUT NO RINGS FOR YOU.

Sorry not sorry. Bud Selig has forever ruined Milwaukee for me.

Alright Dodgers. It's up to you to take out the Brewers.

Mis vs. PCA. I don't like either of them.

Is it just me or did it look like Tucker was NOT HUSTLING OUT OF THE BOX? I don't care if it's a soft grounder to 2B, you RUN!!!

Jason T. Carter @jasontcarter.bsky.social · 17h

I'm definitely on board.

Pinch hits. Not a record, but I suppose you could consider it a milestone. I think he would have been third all-time in 1988 with 125.

I was surprised to find Lenny Harris is the all-time leader in pinch hits. WHY ISN'T LENNY IN THE HALL OF FAME! INDUCT LENNY IN 2026!

What was the reason given for Gross?

I don't know why, but I don't like PCA.

No, they are a yearly stadium giveaway set usually sponsored by Kahn's. I think there have only been two years sponsored by a different company since 1986.

I wish I could, but we don't have Kahn's in Florida! I have to settle for Oscar Mayer down here 😭

Jason T. Carter @jasontcarter.bsky.social · 22h

Wow. Either the same guy designed both, or the Reds straight-up ripped it off.

Random card from my colleciton: 1994 Kahn's Cincinnati Reds SGA #NNO - Kevin Mitchell - Cincinnati Reds

The Reds used to collect former award winners like I collected baseball cards: Kevin Mitchell, Frank Viola, Vince Coleman, Jerome Walton, Terry Pendleton, Benito Santiago... #CardSky

I'm having fun making these old Diamond Kings. Who would you like to see next? #CardSky

Fun Cards: 1988 Donruss Diamond Kings Eddie Harris

Nearing the end of his illustrious career, Eddie Harris continues to find a spot on the roster as a reliable arm and veteran clubhouse presence. Accusations abound concerning doctored baseballs, bu…

On a side note, I absolutely love his videos. One popped up in my YouTube recs a few days ago. Wish I had discovered him earlier.

Watching a @iamtrevormay.bsky.social and he says the MVP ballots are not due until the end of the playoffs... is that true? I thought they had to be submitted before the playoffs started.

Jason T. Carter @jasontcarter.bsky.social · 1d

Mainly Bud Selig. I will associate the team with him until I die.

Also, they should be in the American League.

This is how I remember a lot of things.

Even though the Cubs shouldn't even be in the playoffs (because the WC is stupid), I hope they win tonight.

I cannot stand the Brewers.

When they can hide the fact they don't use logos (like on the Bench), Donruss is fantastic. As much as I love Skenes, though, his card is atrocious.

I feel bad for the Phillies guy, but at least he got to wear the best of the Phillies uniforms (road powder blue with maroon hats).
