Its Wednesday, and as some of you might have come to expect that means its a WOW Wednesday (Win On Wednesdays) here at Extra Innings! I decided to start today’s contest a little later in the day to give the west coast readers a shot. I’ve been told that they are just waking up by the time some folks guess the answers!!
Today’s prize will be three insert/parrallel cards from 2010 Topps Series 1:
- 2010 Topps Gold Parrallel #d /2010 of CHASE UTLEY
-2010 Topps Gold Parrallel #d /2010 of ALBERT PUJOLS
-2010 Topps Peak Performance GU Jersey of Brian Mccann:

How to win? I will start by giving clues periodically. First person to figure out the active player I am describing wins the card. Later today and tomorrow if need be, I will add additional clues if no one has guessed the player. To guess, just post your guess in the comments section. If no one has correctly guessed the player by Friday (doubt that will happen!) then I will randomly select someone who has placed their guesses in the comments section as the winner.
IMPORTANT RULES FOR PARTICIPATION AND CONSIDERATION:
Please limit 3 total guesses to each person. If you post a guess you must make sure to leave your name and you email address so that I can contact you if you guess the correct player! If you happen to guess the answer but don’t leave your name or email I cannot declare you the winner and if someone guesses the right answer after you then I will declare them the winner.
Also in the interest of fairness the following readers are ineligible for this week’s contest as they have won a contest in the last 30 days..sorry guys!
1/7/2010- Rick L
1/13/2010-Brian J.
1/20/2010-Aaron S.
1/27/2010- Chris –(ordner5@comcast.net)
Good luck and Play Ball America!

That was a good one. The Elvis clue is what finally tipped me off. I didn’t think to refresh the page after checking Young’s ‘05 stats. Snooze, lose. Good job!
