2022 Topps Update Cubs Inserts - All-Star Game

 For years Topps put cards of the members of the most recent All-Star teams into the update set.  Last year they changed things up a little by making the All-Stars an insert set.  That opened up several slots into the base set.  This year the All-Stars are again an insert set.  The two Cubs All-Stars were included.

Willson Contreras was voted the starting NL catcher.

Ian Happ was named a reserve.

In the game, Contreras played for the first five innings.  He was 0-2.  Happ came into the game in the top of the sixth and stayed in for the remainder of the contest.  He batted just once and walked.
