Card Of The Week June 29

Interleague play wrapped up last week with the Giants taking the title.  Yoshiyuki Kamei was named Interleague MVP.  It seems a little odd to me that a position player who only played two thirds of his team's game would win it but there you are.  Most significantly he broke the hearts of Buffalo fans by homering for the winning (and only) run of the twelve inning game that included ten no hit innings by Chihiro Kaneko and Yoshihisa Hirano back on May 31.

Here's a card of Kamei from the "Fresh Stars" subset of the 2006 BBM Giants set (#G077):
