Something I learned because of this card: What is there to know about Aaron Judge that we all didn't learn last year? Actually, I thought it was interesting that the home run pictured came on his 25th birthday.


This is Judge's second Opening Day card. He appeared in 2017 and also had a short print variation.



The photo is the same one used on his 2018 Topps card, though the flagship card has the Future Stars logo across the top. Additionally, both sets have different short print photo variations as well.

Cubs Ties?: None
