I decided to participate in the
Crackin Wax Allen & Ginter 2013 Case break and of course chose my beloved Pirates. The Bucs had several good hits from the set list and I was hoping to add one or two to my collection. Unfortunately I got shut out, but that also meant I got a $5 reimbursement which I've already used to purchase a Starling Marte auto which I'll show off in a future post.

2013 SPs: McCutchen & Martin |
The Pirates did have two SPs in the team set (Andrew McCutchen and Russel Martin) and I managed to grab two cards of each. I will consider trading a copy if the offer is right.
|
2013 Base team set: Clemente, Mazeroski, Kiner, Stargell, Burnett, Jones, Alvarez, Walker, Marte |
The rest of the Pirates team set includes 9 base cards

2013 Across the Years inserts: Stargell and Clemente |
The Allen & Ginter Across the Years set includes two Bucs greats (Roberto Clemente & Willie Stargell).
|
2013 Minis: Walker Black Border, Kiner base, Kiner A&G back, Stargell base, McCutchen A&G back |
One of my favorite things about A&G is the minis. I didn't exactly hit on anything of major note, but did get two A&G backs (Kiner and McCutchen) along with a black border Neil Walker.
As an added bonus I received two cards from 2013 Platinum that I desperately needed to add to my collection. They are of top prospects Gerrit Cole and Alen Hanson.
4 hof'ers in a team set is pretty cool.
