- Was an absolute nightmare trying to keep this straight on the scanner. At the end I finally said "close enough" and left it as is.
- I'm sure someone may have noticed, but I have the total card count for Lawrie correct now. I stupidly posted two straight cards for Brett as #18. That has been fixed.
- Career homer #20 for Brett was his 2nd of the series against the Yankees in September 2012. Both homers also drove in the same guy, Anthony Gose. Phil Hughes was the victim of #20, but sadly the Jays gave up 7 runs in the final 3 innings to lose 9-6 to the Bronx Bombers.

- I've had hit and miss success with scanning refractors, but this scan is obviously a hit. Love how the card turned a yellow/gold color on the scan.
- I'm definitely "refractor blind". There are many times that the word "refractor" on the back of the card has actually helped me out.
- I've always wondered why it took athletes so long to return cards that they autographed to the manufacturer. Looking at the amount of cards that Brett has had to sign, I can see why. It's just incredible how many different versions of autographed cards that companies pump out. I'm sure that athletes do have better things to do with their time....

- Home Run #7 of Brett's career would be the last homer that Minnesota pitcher Willie Eyre would give up in the big league. It was a 2 run shot that broke a 6-6 tie and gave the Jays a 8-6 victory.
- I like this card, the shot of Brett just releasing his bat is something you don't see very often.
- Someone in the Jays clubhouse needs to use a little more bleach, those home whites are looking a little grey....
