2016 Topps Now Cubs October

We're getting the the good stuff now!  October 2016 was a very good month for the Cubs.  There are a whopping 38 cards to document the goodness.

The first eight cover the NLDS win over the Giants....









It takes another 13 cards to the their 4-2 win over the Dodgers in the NLCS...














Next it's on to the World Series, starting with five cards that highlight the different players and positions.  These cards have the Cubs on one side and the Indians on the other.  The Cubs were on the front of four of the five....






And finally, it's time to play the World Series!













It was again very simple for me to pick out my favorite of the bunch....


....Miguel Montero's grand slam in the eighth inning of game one of the NLCS.  I was there and it was the noise after the slam was indescribable.  My voice was hoarse for the next two days.
