Year: 2005

Set: Donruss Team Heroes - Showdown Bronze (Rate)

Card: #51 Sidney Ponson


“ I like the design on the front. The border is large but doesn't detract from the photo. Being a parallel makes it even better. ” -Billy Kingsley
  1
“ Other than the stripe on the left, I really like the design. ” -righthook

“ Fun facts: Born in Aruba and is allergic to the rosin bag. ” -TwinKiller
  3
“ Nice parallel. It is hard to tell bronze from gold unless you see a sample of both or they are serial numbered and you know what the serial number range is for each. ” -captkirk42

“ Ponson had a decent career. Was the best starter on some pretty bad Baltimore teams, but still was the best of the lot. As far as the card goes, this is probably one of my favorite sets for parallels in the mid 2000s. Decent photos and the parallel borders really pop side by side. ” -hiflew

“ When I called someone a panzón in school, I was told that wasn't very nice. ” -jackal726

“ The players name on the right side of the card is odd for anyone who reads left to right. Nosnop Yendis ... must be Venezuelan right? ” -BuccaneersDen

“ More photographic evidence supporting my hypothesis that in order to be a pitcher in the majors, your body must be made up of at least 85% rubber. ” -DarthTempest

“ I doubt that a pitcher that went 11-15 with a 5.30 ERA is a team hero. ” -BigBoyOnWheels
  2
“ I got the regular base ” -STLCardinals1992

Good to see they replicated the design on the back.

I remember he was starting a Sunday day game once and given a huge lead early. Then choked it all away and got bombed.

Turns out he had been to a concert several hours away the night before. Never was a fan after that
