Year: 2006

Set: Upper Deck (Rate)

Card: #695 Tony Batista


“ Front is good, a bit above average, nothing special but no big flaws. The back though is great to me. A second photo, biographical info, stats and a blurb. I never understand how some cards can get so much information onto a card and make it look good and some cards can put almost nothing and it looks crammed in. This is one of those cards where other companies should be taking notes. ” -davidhandberry

“ The 2006 and 2009 card backs are way too similar. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ 1 of the best ever designs !! Clean, simple, no borders, all vitals on front and FULL stats on back. If not for the coating that can lead to bricking this would be a 10 ! ” -baseballcardstoreca

“ Great photo. Great Back. Overall a pretty good set ” -parsley24

“ I used to hate 2006 Upper Deck.Now I like it. ” -captkirk42

“ This is for sure my favorite baseball set of all time. I love the design on it, and it was one of the first sets I collected as a kid. ” -Tylergallo

“ Good design--allows picture to shine. ” -cjjt

“ Unless it looks better in hand, this is not one of Upper Deck's better efforts. ” -muskie027

Would not buy this on the basis of appearance.

I am a fan of Upper Deck & miss them, as they tended to offer a more complete team set. Whereas, Bowman, a team set consists of say 4 cards, :( .This was BIG set, IF you included Updates. I had finished my team set years ago and well I traded off a few cards. NOW I find it very difficult to replace what I traded, i.e. an SP :(  I will NEVER again trade off my team sets, as getting replacements can  be tricky!
