2013 Topps Update ‘Postseason Heroes’ Subset – George Brett
The 2013 Topps Update baseball card set includes a subset tagged as ‘Postseason Heroes. And with that theme, you would expect to find cards of modern players like Albert Pujols, Edgar Rentaria, and Pablo Sandoval but none of these guys made the checklist.
That does leave room for some nice surprises…
This is the card of George Brett from the set:
Brett competed in 2 World Series matches during his playing days – 1980 & 1985. In 13 games, he hit .373 as he collected 19 hits while scoring 8 runs and driving in 4.
Brett’s team in 1980 lost the World Series to the Phillies, but in 1985, he and his Royals teammates beat the Cardinals in 7 games to land Brett his first and only World Series championship.
