About the baseball: JD795277

From 9.18.19 game between the White Sox and Twins at Target Field. Pitched by Jimmy Cordero in the bottom of the 6th inning to Nelson Cruz (5-pitch walk) and Eddie Rosario (2 pitches and a foul ball that took it out of the game.) The Twins lost the game 3-1 but went on to the AL Central crown with 101 team wins. This was just the 2nd 100-win season in team history.

About Matthew Lee Rosen's Guest Artist Shops

Topps Project 2020 has inspired a growing number of hobbyists to create their own card art. To provide them with support, I'm inviting artists to build their own guest shop! I lend my expertise to mentor and guide them along the way... my ultimate vision is to curate a mini-marketplace for card-inspired artwork.

Here's what you'll receive with this order

• An original artwork by my guest artist.
• Your purchase will be shipped directly from the guest artist's studio.
• If your order contains multiple items from different artists, the items will ship separately.
