Go Red! 2013 Topps Target Red Shane Victorino

February is American Heart Month. As a nod to the Go Red for Women activities going on this month to help raise awareness, I thought I'd contribute several "red" themed posts sprinkled throughout the month. Here's the next one.

Let's talk about this card...



2013 was certainly a big year for this guy and the Red Sox. Victorino was one of the many smaller signings that were big contributions to that team. Whether it was the season long fascination with his Three Little Birds walk up song, or his heroics during the playoffs, it's hard to picture the 2013 season without Victorino. As someone who was in the park for both his game (and series) clinching grand slam in the ALCS and his bases clearing double in the World Series, I know he's permanently etched in my memories.

The card itself isn't has a nice feel to it. The slight scowl on Victorino's face really sets the mood. Although, for a red card, I'd prefer he was wearing the home whites. It's also a little unsettling to see the three shades of red on the card. Possibly the first time a red card doesn't work for the Red Sox.
