"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 Renteria, and Pablo Sandoval but none of these guys made the checklist.
That does leave room for some nice surprises…
This is the card of Mariano Rivera from the set:
Mariano Rivera’s postseason resume is incredibly impressive. In 19 big league seasons, he made it to the postseason 16 times. He has played in 7 World Series match-ups, winning 5 titles.
Rivera has a postseason record of 8-1 with 42 saves. He has a postseason career ERA of 0.70 and has allowed a total of 13 runs in 141 innings of work."...
