Otani will be selected as the No. 1 card in 2022 by fan voting
“Topps”, which sells trading cards, has updated its official Twitter account, and pitcher Shohei Ohtani of the Angels has been selected as the No. 1 card for the 2022 Series 1 Baseball. In the past, former Yankees Derek Jeter praised the prestigious titles such as the selection of “legends”, saying, “I can’t think of anyone better than him.”
Otani has joined the ranks of successive star players. The official Twitter account for “Topps” added a comment, “Shohei Otani was selected as the # 1 Topps Series 1 Baseball Card # 1 in 2022 by fan voting!” And uploaded a photo of Otani’s card.
Jackie Robinson, Nolan Ryan, and Angels outfielder Mike Trout have all been named “No. 1” cards in the past for 70 years in Topps baseball. In response to this announcement, the company also introduced Otani’s comments, but the response was to the former Yankees captain Jeter, who marked a total of 3465 hits.
Jeter recalled meeting Otani for the first time when he visited Japan with his colleague Hideki Matsui. “I only greeted him at that time, but then followed his career. What he is doing is Babe.・ No one has ever seen it except Ruth. It’s difficult enough to do one job, but you can do two. I can’t think of anyone better than him. ” I was sending the message.
