2018 Topps Heritage High Number - The Dodgers Base Cards

Here is a look at all the Dodgers' base cards found in packs of Topps 2018 Heritage High Number brand. Unfortunately, this product does not include the more notable recent Dodger acquisitions.

There's no Machado. There's no Dozier. There's no Freese.

Instead, we get Cingrani and a player recently traded away -- Logan Forsythe.

There is, on the other hand, numerous Matt Kemp cards available (base, variations, etc.). So, it's got that going for it. Go here to see a complete checklist. I'll have pics of most of the inserts tomorrow, and those cards are far more interesting than the Dodger base cards.

On this team everyone takes their turn to lead. Yesterday, the combined efforts of Joc Pederson and Hyun-Jin Ryu resulted in an 8-2 victory over our rival Rockies. Pederson hit a leadoff homer in the first inning, then drove in two more when he hit his second home run of the evening in the fourth inning. Ryu threw seven scoreless four-hit innings to stymie Colorado. Per Jack Baer at MLB.com:
"Joc, he's just really gotten back to when he was really good," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "Looking out and over, staying in the strike zone and using right-center field to left-center field. Today, that's what he did, took a ball off Gray to left-center and did the same thing against a lefty to right-center field."
