Also in that big box I got from Ryan recently was last year's Epoch Pacific League Rookies set. 2020 was the third year that Epoch did this set and last year's set looks pretty much like the ones from 2018 and 2019.
The set has 37 cards which is the smallest of the three editions. That's not because of any decision Epoch made but rather on what the set is for. It features the entire 2020 rookie class (or at least the non-ikusei portion) for all six Pacific League teams. I've described it before as essentially half of the Rookie Edition set.
Like the two previous editions, the cards are printed on a heavier stock than normal although this year's set doesn't have the shiny borders the other two did. I'm still not impressed with the photo selection - pretty much all the usual "pitchers pitching, batters batting and catchers catching" poses although there's one "fielder fielding" shot and one "base runner running" shot. Here's some example cards:
 |
| #04 |
 |
| #12 |
 |
| #14 |
 |
| #34 |
 |
| #22 |
 |
| #29 |
As usual, you can check out all the cards in the set over at Jambalaya.
