During the HR derby, they're all over the place on the field wearing these jerseys.<br /><br />Not as nice as getting a swatch of uniform in an actual game, but a lot better than some of the football card jersey relics when they cut up stuff that some player wore in a "photo shoot."

The fact of the matter is that these players have "workout days" prior to the all star game and just sit around in these jerseys, during things like the home run derby.<br /><br />Is it possible that they just put on a bunch of jerseys for the purposes of these cards? Yes. But you can make a lot of 1x1 swatches from a full jersey and I wouldn't be totally shocked if the "event worn" actually comes from what they wore at the event.Grand Cardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658028013441039898noreply@blogger.com
