Byron O'Buxton and the Luck of the Irish

 


Major League Baseball is back - Spring Training games started today, and the first at bat of the first game was by Byron Buxton. A single and a stolen base in today's game against Boston, and it came on Saint Patrick's Day! If anyone is due for a little luck, it's Buxton - he's been snakebitten by a series of hard-luck injuries in his career. I'm glad Topps chose Buxton for this instead of Josh Donaldson for this Twins card.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day and happy first day of Spring (Training)!

  1. Donaldson is a PC guy of mine, so I'd been good with the alternative. :)

  2. At first I thought that Luck of the Irish card was a custom. Anyways... I'm glad it's not. It's different... and cool.
